> AGI is a weakly defined term, but generally speaking we mean it to be a system that can tackle increasingly complex problems, at human level, in many fields.

Is it just me, or is that an incredibly weak/vague definition for AGI? Feels like you could make the claim that AI is at this level already if you stretch the terms he used enough.

It's funny, there used to be a pretty solid definition of AGI: a system that can pass the Turing Test. Then we got there, and it turned out that passing the Turing Test is actually pretty specialized and doesn't mean the system is as smart as a human in all aspects.
