The kind of AI being trained now aren't given the mechanisms of data space traversal/attention. Recently, attention mechanisms are being focused on by google. An AGI needs to learn that it can affect the system - dependent decision theory factors in here too.

Also, growth may be hugely important. Babies start out with fuzzy learning, almost as if the learning rate starts out very small which normalizes the lack of knowledge and elevated novelty/variance of the environment.

AGI is all about predicting future utility given a circular dependency between the agent and environment. QM says we can't solve this exactly.. it's a two object interaction.. no way to gain the joint state, the ground truth, assumptions always have to be made to approximate independence.
