There is no way we have enough information to make this claim, or its negative. (And since solving thousands of vertical tasks is very useful indeed, that's what most researchers should focus on)https://twitter.com/fchollet/status/945581226424983554 …

Re-read the tweet and think about it for a while. It's not a far-fetched claim, it's almost a tautology, and could be generalized to almost any technology. I know you're a Singularity believer though, so I won't try to convince you
Superhuman strength for lots of specialized moves via steam power does not equal machines with the motor capabilities of a human body. Lots of specialized algorithms (which have been around for a long time) does not equal humanlike intelligence.

I agree with that, but that's a very different claim. First, we can and should aim to solve many vertical problems with a small number of general approaches, not with lots of specialized algorithms.

Secondly, you said there is "no path", not just that they are "not equal". But is it provably impossible that trying to solve more and more vertical problems with more and more general approaches doesn't lead to better and better intelligence?

Another point of agreement.
