Why I am not AGI-pilled (and you probably shouldn’t be either)

This article presents a critical perspective on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), arguing that the pursuit of a single, human-like 'God model' is flawed. The author recounts a personal anecdote about debating AGI with its coiner, Shane Legg, and then explains why human intelligence is specialized, not general. Drawing on views from Yann LeCun and examples from nature, the article contends that benchmarking AI against human cognition is a fallacy. Instead, it advocates for pragmatic AI development focused on specialized, capable systems. The piece is relevant to IT/technology discussions on AI trends, machine learning philosophy, and software engineering best practices.
