Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will most likely be developed in VR before robotics as a full body/brain simulation.
VR has nothing to do with AGI.

VR is hardware, creating various input/output devices that enable us to increasingly embody our virtual avatars and interact with the virtual world in increasingly lifelike ways.

AGI is a very theoretical information processing problem, in many ways AGI already exists, in part, the problem is getting a computer to do what the brain does would require trillions of parallel processing threads which is not something our technology is really designed for.

*puts $500 on the table*

DARPA already has AGI which means the NSA already has it or is about to get it too, they're probably using it for code-breaking, which is essentially pattern recognition which is exactly what AGI would excel at, although it would still be at a mainframe level, I doubt they've made it efficient enough to be portable yet, but hey it's DARPA so who knows?

Maybe try to achieve the SAME massive brain parallelism it's just like try to achieve flight ability scaling up bird wings.
