Reddit User Argues AGI Requires Mimicking Human Thought's Randomness

A recent Reddit post suggests a novel approach to achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI): mirroring the inherent randomness and conscious exploration characteristic of human thought. The user posits that tools like search engines and current AI models such as Google’s search and ChatGPT already reflect aspects of this unique cognitive style. The poster further speculates that the increasing availability of identical information sources could be ironically homogenizing human thought patterns, making individuals more predictable and, consequently, simplifying the process of AI learning and mirroring those patterns. The discussion originated on Reddit’s r/artificial forum.
