Minimal AGI vs task AGI
- I'm not clear on what the difference is here
- See MIRI's strategic plan from end of 2017 where they make this distinction
- It seems like MIRI went from:
- a one-step view: just build a Sovereign
- to a two-step view: build a task-directed AGI first, then go for Sovereign
- to a three-step view: build a minimal aligned AGI, then task AGI, then Sovereign
- I'm not sure why "three" is the right number of phases (why not two or four?), and I don't think MIRI has explained this
