Jagged AGI: o3, Gemini 2.5, and everything after

The capabilities of AI post gpt3 have become extraordinary and clearly in many cases superhuman.

However (as the article admits) there is still no general agreement of what AGI is, or how we (or even if we can) get there from here.

What there is is a growing and often naïve excitement that anticipates it as coming into view, and unfortunately that will be accompanied by the hype-merchants desperate to be first to "call it".

This article seems reasonable in some ways but unfortunately falls into the latter category with its title and sloganeering.

"AGI" in the title of any article should be seen as a cautionary flag. On HN - if anywhere - we need to be on the alert for this.

AGI is a annonymous good model coming around the corner with no company and no LLM researchers attached. AGI is when the LLM hype train threads are replaced with CEOs and let go researchers demanding UBI.

Yeah formal agreement seems exceedingly unlikely. Since there isn’t even agreement on the defintion of “Artifical Intelligence”.

Even worse, there isn’t even a working definition of "Intelligence"—neither in computer science nor biology.

This is why I suspect that slapping “Artificial” in the acronym is rather forward of us as a species. If we do end up eventually with something we consider intelligent, there won’t be anything artificial about it.
