"Artificial Super Intelligence"

It's a meaningless buzzword that has nothing to do with what is going on right now in the real world.

Because AGI wasn't trendy enough ๐Ÿ™„

Not sure what that guy or you are talking about. AGI and ASI are both accepted industry terms in this space. You also don't need AGI to have ASI - a paperclip maximiser is ASI - that's why it's a powerful weapon.

Doubt. Never heard ASI before, and googling the acronym doesn't turn up anything relevant on the 1st page.

Yeah, I don't see the acronym a single time on the entire Wikipedia page.

Note I'm not debating the existence of superintelligence as a concept, just the acronym itself here.

Cool story I guess
