davidad @davidad · 2h if your definition of "AGI" is "better at most tasks than per-task expert humans" (back in the day, we used to call this "ASI"), that is coming next quarter [quoted tweet] Bayesian @Bayesian0_0 · Aug 1 Fun fact: Across 44 benchmarks that have a "Human baseline", the human baseline BECI (a personal replication of the Epoch Capabilities Index) comes out at 166.7, which projections say will be beat by AI models around october 2026! [embedded chart: 'Human baseline on the BECI scale (pooled human rows scored against frozen benchmark parameters; human data never enters the fit)'. Scatter plot, x-axis 'Release date' 2023-01 to 2026-07+, y-axis 'BECI' 60-160+. Legend: Models (grey dots), Model frontier (blue step line), Frontier trend (dotted line), Human baseline pooled (red horizontal band ~166.7). Annotation: 'trend crossing ~2026-10-16' where the frontier trend dotted line meets the red human baseline band.]

X thread: davidad comments on Bayesian's (@Bayesian0_0) chart showing AI model capability (a personal replication of the Epoch Capabilities Index, BECI) trending to cross the pooled human baseline (166.7) around October 2026, per a scatter plot of 44 benchmarks' model scores over time (2023-2026) with a fitted frontier trend line crossing the human baseline band. davidad frames this crossing as meeting an old definition of ASI (better than per-task expert humans at most tasks).
