Subject: The Memo - AI that matters, as it happens, in plain English
AGI:     84 ➜ 88%
ASI:     0/50 (no expected movement until post-AGI)

Image generated in a few seconds, on 19 December 2024, text prompt by Alan D. Thompson, via Google Imagen 3-002: ‘Beautiful sky, Australian rural setting, in the style of Kazuo Oga and Atey Ghailan, rolling hills, sheep and wallabies and a small cottage, cinematic lighting, otherworldly colors.’

It feels like Christmas morning already! The OpenAI o3 release a few hours ago was significant, and moved my AGI countdown up to 88%.

Today, I’m happy to provide you with my end-of-year report for 2024.
