AGI不存在绝对定义,其能力依赖任务分布,无法自我证明。

The Relativity of AGI: Distributional Axioms, Fragility, and Undecidability

  • 将AGI定义为依赖任务分布和资源约束的语义命题
  • 证明微小任务分布变化可导致AGI失效,无法保证普遍鲁棒性
  • 揭示自证式自我提升机制在理论上不成立,适合理论研究者

我们研究人工智能通用智能(AGI)是否存在一致的理论定义,以支持存在性、鲁棒性或自我验证的绝对断言。我们将AGI形式化为一个分布相关的、资源受限的语义谓词,由任务族、任务分布、性能函数和明确的资源预算索引。在此框架下,得出四类结果:第一,普遍性本质上是相对的,不存在与分布无关的AGI概念;第二,证明非不变性结果,即任务分布的任意微小扰动可通过悬崖集使AGI属性失效,排除了普遍鲁棒性;第三,建立有限资源下的转移边界保证,排除了跨任务族的无限泛化;第四,通过类Rice和哥德尔-塔斯基论证,证明AGI是非平凡语义性质,因此无法被任何可计算过程(包括智能体自身实现的程序)可靠且完全认证。因此,依赖内部自我认证的递归自我改进方案在理论上不成立。综上,强而分布无关的AGI断言并非错误,而是未明确定义,且人工智能的实证进展并不意味着自证通用智能的可达性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We study whether Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) admits a coherent theoretical definition that supports absolute claims of existence, robustness, or self-verification. We formalize AGI axiomatically as a distributional, resource-bounded semantic predicate, indexed by a task family, a task distribution, a performance functional, and explicit resource budgets. Under this framework, we derive four classes of results. First, we show that generality is inherently relational: there is no distribution-independent notion of AGI. Second, we prove non-invariance results demonstrating that arbitrarily small perturbations of the task distribution can invalidate AGI properties via cliff sets, precluding universal robustness. Third, we establish bounded transfer guarantees, ruling out unbounded generalization across task families under finite resources. Fourth, invoking Rice-style and Gödel--Tarski arguments, we prove that AGI is a nontrivial semantic property and therefore cannot be soundly and completely certified by any computable procedure, including procedures implemented by the agent itself. Consequently, recursive self-improvement schemes that rely on internal self-certification of AGI are ill-posed. Taken together, our results show that strong, distribution-independent claims of AGI are not false but undefined without explicit formal indexing, and that empirical progress in AI does not imply the attainability of self-certifying general intelligence.
