Unless you believe humans have something mystical like a soul, our brains are evidence that “general intelligence” is achievable in a relatively small, energy efficient form.
Ok, but very few people contest that consciousness is computable. It's basically just Penrose (and other folks without the domain knowledge to engage). This doesn't imply that at any point during all human existence will computing consciousness be economically feasible or worthwhile.
Actual AGI presumably implies a not-brain involved.
And this isn't even broaching the subject of "superintelligence", which I would describe as "superunbelievable".
