Ask HN: If AGI is achieved – what happens next?

1 pointsby trashtestcrashover 1 year ago
This week I learned the term AGI. I found a video online speculating why Sam Altman may be looking to raise trillions $.<p>If AGI is really achieved, what do you think would happen next. How would the stock market react, winners, losers?<p>What would happen with the value of money and human society in general.<p>Interesting to hear what people think, it can&#x27;t be all doom and gloom. How would we control this thing?

Short term: people who are good at selling will start making millions until others catch up. I can already see how GPT-wrappers are earning damn cool money.
