Demis Hassabis, the CEO of Google Deepmind, expects AI systems in the near future to not only answer questions but also plan and act independently.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Hassabis says his company is working on such “agent-like” systems that could be ready for use in one to two years.
“I’m really excited about the next stage of these large general models. You know, I think the next things we’re going to see perhaps this year, maybe next year, is more agent like behavior,” says Hassabis.
