Why though? Our brains have different processing centers. Why would it be different for a general purpose A.I?

Because of you have a special case plug-in for everything then the AI is just a natural language processor, and there's no deep learning for the actual functionality.

>Our brains have different processing centers.

Uhh, no they don't? Did you know everything you know now about math when you were born, and are you also incapable of learning new things about math? Because that's how the wolfram plug-in works.

I know lots of the SV VC oligarch cult just wants to race forward and create something like AGI that will help them conquer the world and achieve immortality somehow, but hopefully this remains in the realm of science fiction. As RMS says, LLMs at least don't seem to be "it" no matter how much user generated data they ingest, because they do have these inherent limitations.

The far more practical (profitable) outcome for what they currently built is to just make a useful tool, a "smarter" wolfram alpha, and that can be iterated upon by delegating relevant operations to specific techniques that are more applicable to the question at hand.
