To be fair I think we'd be able to claim AGI is here if that problem is solved. At this point the models are so smart they're borderline super intelligent if they were cognizant of hallucinations and their own shortcomings. If GPT 5.5 or Opus 4.8 could tell you "I don't know" they'd certainly be "smarter" than any individual human. Some specialists might be better in niche domains, but I don't know of any humans who are experts at that level in every field.

Your condition is called AI psychosis. Good news is: it's curable!
Care to elaborate? What is AI psychosis? How am I exhibiting it? I thought hacker news was the last place free of mindless dunking on the internet, I guess I was wrong. If you'd like to engage in a debate on the original topic of this thread I'd be more than happy to, but if you want to dunk, twitter is over at x.com now.
Much of HN has devolved into Yahoo Answers levels of inane buffoonery, sadly. Especially when it comes to screeching about how AI is so terrible, blah blah. So tiresome.
I feel the same about the endless hype, so I guess it's in the eye of the beholder
How could it not be?
