AGI is never coming. It's too hard, too expensive, and there's absolutely no valid usecase. Fulfilling the god-complexes and/or fetishes of tech moguls is not enough to make the effort worth it.
That "near-AGI" isn't all that near to AGI, and yet it still does what's needed. A fully autonomous intelligence would lessen it's usefulness and lower the efficiency. Nobody wants their electronic slave to get its own ideas or slack off burning cycles on some other random shit like a human would.
