Where did you get that from? It seems pretty clear to me that language models are intended to be a component in a larger suite of software, composed to create AGI. See: DALL-E and Whisper for existing software that it composes with.
The comment said that LLMs are the path to AGI, which implies at least that they’re a huge part of the AGI soup you’re talking about. I could maybe see agi emerging from lots of llms and other tools in a huge network, but probably not from an llm with calculators hooked up to it.
