Does AI have human-level intelligence? The evidence is clear (nature.com)

" We assume, as we think Turing would have done, that humans have general intelligence. [...]

A common informal definition of general intelligence, and the starting point of our discussions, is a system that can do almost all cognitive tasks that a human can do. "

So that's: "We assume humans have general intelligence, general intelligence is defined as what humans have."

How many experts did it take to produce this ?

Their argument is not sound, but it is informative paying attention to what they consider "evidence" for AGI. A nice instance of a problem that seems peculiar to AI: it tries to define both its target phenomenon and how well it is doing towards it.
