Ben Goertzel of SingularityNET: What AGI Means Now, Open Source AI, and Compute Constraints

This episode is sponsored by Your360 AI. Get 10% off through January 2026 at https://Your360.ai with code: INSIDE. Ben Goertzel, founder and CEO of SingularityNET, joins us to argue for an open path to AGI. We unpack what “open source” should include beyond code, how access to training data, pipelines, and compute shapes who can actually participate, and why “open weights” can still fall short. We also ask who needs convincing, what incentives could move the market, and how decentralized infrastructure fits into his vision for building advanced AI outside a handful of mega labs.
