To me AGI has always meant sentience. And only since we’ve discovered that you can have something that is intelligent without it being apparently sentient that we’ve changed the definition to being, I suppose, more exactly aligned with the namesake. A real AGI, like the ones from science fiction, would make Astra look like a child’s toy. And I guess more concretely I would expect it to inhibit the following properties: one shot learning - fully (and always) online, perfectly efficient (through self improvement), no context limitations ie. persistently thinking, not just awaiting input. So for me, no, not AGI yet. But still very intelligent and capable (and perhaps it’s safer this way?)

> To me AGI has always meant sentience. Sentience and intelligence are different things. Many humans and animals are pretty dumb, yet they are sentient. AI is intelligent, but non-sentient (hopefully!).

    Your dog cannot program an app or solve a math conjecture, though.
