AGI Prototype Achieves Real-Time Self-Correction: 95% Success on Simple Tasks

AGI Prototype Shows Real-Time Self-Correction

A groundbreaking AGI prototype demonstrates capabilities once thought years away: real-time action planning and self-correction based on visual input, with upcoming features including self-awareness and autonomous task execution.

Current Capabilities

The prototype already exhibits:

Visual Understanding:

• Process camera/screen input in real-time
• Understand spatial relationships
• Recognize objects and contexts
• Track changes over time

Action Planning:

• Generate step-by-step plans
• Adapt plans to changing conditions
• Optimize for efficiency
• Handle multi-step tasks

Self-Correction:

• Detect when actions fail
• Analyze failure causes
• Generate alternative approaches
• Retry with improved strategy

Real-World Demonstration

Example Task: "Make Coffee"

1. Agent observes kitchen via camera
2. Plans: Get cup → Add coffee → Add water → Start machine
3. Executes: Reaches for cup
4. Observes: Cup knocked over
5. Self-corrects: "Need to approach differently"
6. Replans: Stabilize cup first, then proceed
7. Successfully completes task

The Self-Correction Loop

How It Works:

Observe → Plan → Act → Evaluate
   ↑                      ↓
   └──── Adjust ←────────┘

Key Components:

1. Observation: Visual input processing
2. Planning: Action sequence generation
3. Execution: Physical or digital actions
4. Evaluation: Success/failure detection
5. Adjustment: Strategy modification

Upcoming Features

Self-Awareness:
