SoTA models are at least very close to AGI when it comes to textual and still image inputs for most domains. In many domains, SoTA AI is superhuman both in time and speed. (Not wrt energy efficiency.*)
AI SoTA for video is not at AGI level, clearly.
Many people distinguish intelligence from memory. With this in mind, I think one can argue we’ve reached AGI in terms of “intelligence”; we just haven’t paired it up with enough memory yet.
* Humans have a really compelling advantage in terms of efficiency; brains need something like 20W. But AGI as a threshold has nothing directly to do with power efficiency, does it?
LLMS are terrible at writing in terms of style, and in terms of content or creativity they couldn’t come up with a short story any better than what you’d find at an amateur writer workshop. To declare we have reached AGI in textual media seems premature at best.
