Wu said that Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin posted on X, stating that his definition of AGI is that artificial intelligence needs to be strong enough that if humans suddenly disappear, the AI can autonomously maintain the operation of civilization by uploading to a robotic body. This would mark the transition of AI from a tool that relies on human input to a self-sustaining form of life. ASI, on the other hand, is the form of intelligence when human participation can no longer enhance productivity. Vitalik emphasized that even according to his definition of AGI, the realization of AGI is concerning because it may lead to a loss of human control. He supports focusing work on developing "tools that enhance human intelligence" rather than pursuing independent superintelligent life forms.
