Thanks for putting this so well. The mathematical evidence for this “general intelligence underlying everything” is the “universal geometry of embeddings” paper. Fascinating read. Or as the ancient philosophers used to say, the one who knows God knows everything.

"the one who knows god knows everything" could also be a reference to the fact that god is unknowable, and therefore so is everything...

Is this the paper?
