edit: Boneheaded passion got ahead of me and I forgot that the Gym was intended originally to be cross functional. TO be fair I don't think that aspect of the gym has been well publicized. Original comment retained for context:
How about instead of wasting time on this stuff, they build an actual benchmark test for AGI. Something everyone in the community agrees needs to be built, and basically nobody is working on. I suggest they start with the "anytime intelligence test" from Hernandez-Oralloa as a stepping stone.
Oh wait, benchmarks aren't sexy. Nevermind.
> they build an actual benchmark test for AGI
This is actually the project I'm currently leading (goal #1 here: https://openai.com/blog/openai-technical-goals/). We should have something interesting to share in a few months.
Duh, forgot about the gym. Sorry.
We also have something new coming, which we hope will focus research and drive forward progress towards AGI. (As always, looking for more engineers to work on it. Just need a strong software generalist skillset. gdb@openai.com.)
