## Resource

Artificial General Intelligence promises human-level reasoning, but today’s large language models still lack true understanding, long-term memory, and physical intuition. This episode explores expert predictions on AGI’s timeline, the technical and economic barriers ahead, and whether breakthroughs in efficiency can overcome safety and governance challenges. This episode includes AI-generated content.
