A multimodal LLM using tools definitely feels like the closest we’ve ever been to AGI.
If we’re at a place a LLM can make and use tools I’m excited about the limits of its ability to create tools... specifically to create new tools.

For me that kind of entailment is one of the more exciting pillars of general intelligence and unique among humans (I think?).

The next step could be pairing multiple LLMs with code synthesisers. The LLM could describe the target API, a second LLM would build said API, and resolve the query.

I think at that point we will be very close to an AGI.

To me what we are seeing is what a failure the field of the philosophy of artificial intelligence has been to prepare us linguistically to have discussions about all this.

Even when we have real AGI, some people will argue we don't because it can't cook a hamburger. Then even if we make a robot AI arm to cook a hamburger, people will complain the arm can't play the guitar.

What will the people complain about at the end?
