🔒 How far are we from AGI? It depends on who’s measuring
AGI has long been the goal of the world’s biggest AI labs. The problem is that OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Anthropic and Chinese players don’t always mean the same thing when they talk about “general intelligence”.
“Welcome to the AGI era.” According to Axios, those were the words Greg Brockman, OpenAI’s co-founder and president, used to close a press briefing on the launch of GPT-6 Astra. The company itself was more cautious. In its official announcement, it called Astra “a new generation of intelligence” and its most intelligent model yet, but it didn’t say: we’ve achieved AGI. Axios.
That’s probably for the best, because before we decide whether AGI already exists, we first need to agree on what it actually is.
