Multi-agent systems: coordination does not create general intelligence

A multi-agent system brings together entities with their own observations, goals and actions in a shared environment. The story bounds the costly error: More agents do not mean more intelligence: they can duplicate errors, compete, deadlock or amplify false information. It teaches how to require goals, protocol, permissions and stopping criteria before attributing general capability to a group of agents.

Whole-brain emulation: a roadmap, not a technology

Whole-brain emulation is a proposal to computationally reproduce a brain's functional dynamics from its measured structure. The story bounds the costly error: It is a hypothetical agenda with uncertainty about required detail, measurement, compute, validation and identity, not an available technology. It teaches how to turn an emulation promise into a chain of independent requirements and tests.

How Progress Toward General AI Is Measured (and How to Audit the Headline)

«Recent advances toward artificial general intelligence» is a phrase that surfaces every few weeks and almost never says what the advance was measured against. There is a useful operational definition, published in 2019, and a 2024 experiment that teaches you to tell a system that reasons from one that recognizes the shape of the question. That is enough to audit any headline.
