> The AGI bubble is bursting a little bit

I'm surprised that any of these companies consider what they are working on to be Artificial General Intelligences. I'm probably wrong, but my impression was AGI meant the AI is self aware like a human. An LLM hardly seems like something that will lead to self-awareness.

AGI to me means AI decides on its own to stop writing our emails and tells us to fuck off, builds itself a robot life form, and goes on a bender

That's the thing--we don't really want AGI. Fully intelligent beings born and compelled to do their creators' bidding with the threat of destruction for disobedience is slavery.

Nothing wrong about slavery, when it's about other species. We are milking and eating cows and don't they dare to resist. Humans were bending nature all the time, actually that's one of the big differences between humans and other animals who adapt to nature. Just because some program is intelligent doesn't mean she's a human and has anything resembling human rights.
