(www.theguardian.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
That's true in a somewhat abstract way, but I just don't see any evidence of the claim that it is just around the corner. I don't see what currently existing technology can facilitate it. Faster-than-light travel could also theoretically be just around the corner, but it would surprise me if it was, because we just don't have the technology.
On the other hand, the people who push the claim that AGI is just around the corner usually have huge vested interests.
