Comment on We Have Made No Progress Toward AGI

Comments

Red flag nowadays is when a blog post tries to judge whether AI is AGI. Because these goal posts are constantly moving and there is no agreed upon benchmark to meet. More often than not, they reason why exactly something is not AGI yet from their perspective, while another user happily use AI as a full-fledged employee depending on use case. I’m personally using AI as a coding companion and it seems to be doing extremely well for being brain dead at least.

It’s AGI when it can improve itself with no more than a little human interaction

Has the AI replaced you yet? Or is it a productive tool you make use of it? It's the difference between the Enterprise Computer and Lieutenant Commander Data.

Who is using AI as full-fledged employees?

these goal posts are constantly moving

No, they're not.

The only people who have made claims about achieving AGI are grifters trying to stir up hype or funding. Their opinions are not important.
