it’s important to understand that my work — even in the sense of the long-term goals that I was doing software verification as the first step towards — was not actually focused on AGI as we use the term today. Rather, as the name of my company indicates, it was focused on creating machines with enough common sense to relieve us of the tedious aspects of the human condition as we know it today, but not to rival us (let alone exceed us) in the creative sense. I’m still quite doubtful that it would, in fact, be desirable to create machines with sufficiently general intelligence to merit being considered as conscious.
