AGI, like AI before it, has been coopted into a marketing term. Most of the time, outside of sci-fi, what people mean when they say AGI is "a profitable LLM".

In the words OpenAI: “AGI is defined as highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work”

SamA isn't an idiot. When he says AGI he wants you to think of Asimov style AI. Don't run defense for billionaire grifters.
I was not trying to defend him. I'm very annoyed at how these words are being intentionally abused; they chose to recycle the term rather to create a new one exactly to create this confusion. It's still important to know what the grifters mean.
