Is Artificial General Intelligence Here?

In a commentary published today at Nature, a group of researchers, including two philosophers, argue that “once you clear away certain confusions, and strive to make fair comparisons and avoid anthropocentric biases, the conclusion is straightforward: by reasonable standards… we have artificial systems that are generally intelligent.”

 
If you define AGI as broad behavioral competence across lots of cognitive tasks and you accept behavior-first evidence as the primary yardstick, then such a conclusion can look “straightforward"

But that “if” is doing a lot of work.

AI only has to be effective in performing common human tasks. That has been achieved.
 
These models seem to have so much trouble with common sense still and real world modeling... probably it's not AGI. But maybe there is something in a lab that qualifies. Probably you'd get superintelligence really fast after AGI.
