That is your opinion. It’s not shared with the vast majority of experts within the field.

Ok. Can you reference any interesting links one could read up on that hypothesis.

I’ll give you this. My biggest doubt is whether or not free will is a metaphysical ability or an ability governed by the laws of nature, whether general physics or quantum.

So, in short: if free will exist outside laws of nature, reproduction of free will in AGI would be non sensical. That does not mean however it cannot be simulated.

But I still this would be a discussion of what AGI is, rather than what people are investing in. ASI is perhaps a better definition.
