I am not indeed, I wonder what is the number people in the US would typically estimate for the 1%? (As opposed to the true figure)

I wont ask what the US 1% salary is because I could google that and get the official numbers, but I do wonder what people typically think that number is?

I feel like these topics end up being followed by an "elite" of sorts. I may be wrong tho.

Im asking this before reading, so feel free to refer me back to the article, but if we measure AGI by capacity rather than by a definition, then which capacity are we aiming at? Are we waiting for complete authomation and UBI before talking about AGI?

Okay I do get the nuance now. I feel like its interesting to try and get to establish what a system "knows" and doesnt "know".
I feel like ethologists and people working in animal cognition should jump in the wider AGI benchmark conversation

I agree with the sentiment, it ends up being a matter of definition in the end!
I kind of disagree with part 2 though, LLMs like the ones we have bullshit us all the time (they hallucinate) but are still very helpful as a tool (even if they need our oversight).

What is a non science question though? Is there any question that cannot be explored through a scientific lense?
