Meet the Man Who Coined "AGI": Peter Fos Unpacks the Future of Thinking Machines // REPOST
26 april 2025 · 46 min
Probably my most inspiring podcast episode up until now - if you didn't listen the first time, now is a must! Lees meer
---
What is AGI really — and why are today's AI models not getting us there? In this thought-provoking episode, Peter Voss, CEO and Chief Scientist of Aigo.ai, joins me to explore the real meaning behind Artificial General Intelligence.
Peter, who helped coin the term "AGI" back in 2001, explains why current AI systems like large language models are fundamentally on the wrong track.
We dive deep into the differences between narrow AI and cognitive AI, discuss the future potential of AGI to revolutionize industries, and tackle big questions like: Could AGI actually save humanity?
Peter also shares how his team is developing an AGI system that learns like a child — starting at the level of a three-year-old and advancing naturally, not through brute-force data.
We talk about why today's AI funding priorities may be holding true progress back, and why the biggest threat might not be AGI itself, but misunderstanding its nature.

Jay opens up about how his mother's love for the show "Knight Rider" and its self-driving car ignited his passion for AI and robotics. Lees meer
We delve into the evolution of AI, discussing the surprising challenges of software over hardware in the development of general-purpose autonomy. Jay explains how Lemurian Labs is tackling these challenges by creating an accelerated software platform that allows developers to write code once and run it anywhere—from edge to cloud, on any hardware. This groundbreaking approach aims to free developers from hardware constraints, enabling faster innovation and scalability.
Throughout the conversation, we explore the concept of a cognitive revolution and how AI is accelerating innovation across various fields, from self-driving cars to medical research. Jay shares his insights on the future of robotics, the potential of AI to unlock human potential, and why fears about AI turning into a "Terminator"-like threat are unfounded. He emphasizes the importance of safety in AI development and debunks common myths about AI's potential risks.

The Hidden Science Behind Chatbots That Actually Work Lees meer
Ever asked a chatbot a simple question and ended up more confused than before? You’re not alone. Most chatbots fail miserably at their one job: giving you the right answer without making you work for it. But why?
In this episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, we break down the secret to effective chatbots using Information Foraging Theory—a concept that explains how humans (and animals!) search for information. We explore why some chatbots feel like magic while others make you want to throw your laptop out the window.
You’ll learn:
Why most chatbots waste your time and how they should actually function.
How your brain searches for information like a squirrel hunting for food (yes, really).
A real-world case study that shows how chatbot design can make or break user experience.
The cake test—because AI is always easier to understand when food is involved.

The Dead Internet Theory: What If AI Took Over Years Ago?
3 maart 2025 · 15 min
Is the internet still alive, or has it been quietly taken over by bots, AI-generated content, and algorithm-driven engagement? Lees meer
In this episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, we explore the eerie and controversial Dead Internet Theory—the idea that much of what we see online isn’t created by humans anymore but by automated systems designed to manipulate, entertain, and sell.
Are the people you interact with online actually real? How much of the news you read, the trends you follow, and the debates you see are fueled by artificial intelligence? And if AI has taken over, how can we spot the difference between authentic human content and algorithmic noise?
Get ready for a deep dive into one of the strangest AI-related theories out there. We’ll break it down, separate paranoia from reality, and—of course—use cake to explain it all. Because when it comes to the internet, you need to know whether you’re getting the real deal or just another slice of mass-produced, artificially optimized content.

AI thrives on data—but what happens when it starts averaging everything out? Lees meer
In this episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, we explore why AI’s obsession with statistical averages can be a serious problem.
From healthcare to hiring algorithms, we break down how flattening data can erase crucial insights, reinforce biases, and lead to one-size-fits-all solutions that don’t actually fit anyone.
We’ll unpack real-world examples, including how AI in medicine has overlooked critical symptoms for underrepresented groups like people not living in cities, and why recommendation engines often fail to capture what makes you unique.
Plus, we’ll explain why an AI-designed cake—made entirely from “average” preferences—might be the worst dessert ever created.
