The term has been bastardized. AI is now any app that uses if statements, so long as it's obscured to the user. So now "AGI" exists, because apparently the word "general" now means "intelligent", unlike "intelligence".
At some point in the future marketers will learn about AGI, and we'll have to make yet another term, maybe artificial general practical intelligence?
Right, because when I think of "intelligence" I assume it's specialized and otherwise is dumb as rocks. Naturally. Which is why marketers are really just advertising specialized tools, not agi. Obviously.
I know what agi is; I just find the terms backward.
When you think of intelligence, you think of the human kind. As we create different things that have some of the properties we usually identify as "intelligence", but lack others that were completely correlated until that time, we need to create better words that can express the new situation.
It's perfectly ok to prefer the qualifier to go the other way around, keep intelligence general and change the name of the specialized form. But that's just not how our language evolved.
