The WIDELY supported definition of AGI is "human-level intelligence." Feel free to deviate from that commonly accepted definition but then any further debate is pointless.

In the short term, AI accelerates our productivity.
In the long term, it can speed up the demise of our business.
I will discuss the impact of AI on our ways of working, with a small cohort, in seven long live sessions, starting April 10.
DM me for details.
