LLMs, even in control of lab equipment, address neither of those.

Thank you. This is what I'm driving at, that most of the AI and software devs here seem to be missing. Intelligence is not, and never was the bottleneck for most science/hard tech. Full AGI gets, at best, a small productivity improvement, which over long periods of time does have compounding effects. But this isn't a singularity hard-takeoff inflection point.
