Thank you for the suggested link. That does seem like a good expansion on the same.
Yes, you are right, this argument clearly doesn't hold for neural networks as they exist now. But this entire article was to come to this exact line of reasoning, hence the emphasis on model-independent approaches. A standard feedforward network with fixed parameters and weights without a mesa-optimizer cannot lie variably owing to different situations as exploited in timing attacks, nor does it have the abilities of an AGI. Rather than any arbitrary AGI system, I would say ... (read more)
