Resolution criteria:
AGI - Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a field of theoretical AI research that attempts to create software with human-like intelligence and the ability to self-teach. The aim is for the software to be able to perform tasks that it is not necessarily trained or developed for - to be achieved by x/Elon by this time next year for this market to resolve YES.
If AGI is not achieved/confirmed by a reasonable standard - this market will resolve as No.

Elon has added 100k GPUs to his cluster and confirms a training run has begun.
@Mich I'll use the latter since Next Year could mean both and going the long way means we can always close early if results come in.
Doesn't need to be the first, as long as he releases his iteration of AGI by end of 2025. If OpenAI comes out with their implementation of AGI before, no impact on this market.
For the purposes of this market, as long as it's released by xAI/Elon and meets AGI requirements, we'll resolve yes.
Although I agree and think it's unlikely (I don't bet on my own markets) he will meet this deadline - this should be interesting:
