AGI = Artificial General Intelligence.

By definition we are not AGI. Maybe GI, but when the author has trouble articulating basic things they lose credibility and I lose interest.

With that pedantic an approach you are missing out on an otherwise fairly informative piece.

I think words matter and it's important that we all agree on the meaning if we want to convey ideas. My approach may be pedantic - but it also saves me from wasting my time reading an article that my be full of idiosyncrasies. It's okay if other people take a stab at parsing the article and/or derive value from it through.
