Bro what???!!?? GPT-4 is already being used as a personalized tutor on Kahn Academy. It’s personally helped me understand difficult Algorithms and CV applications in my undergrad classes. GPT-4 is about to revolutionize the world.

It’s about to revolutionize the world, yes. What you described is what this sort if approach is good at: acting as a repository and reformatter for already existing human knowledge. But that doesn’t mean it’s an AGI, because as the person you’re responding to said, to be sure we have one of those requires making something that can create something beyond current human knowledge. (Or, at least, beyond just the logic that was contained in its training set)
What it kind of boils down to is: is it a tool, or an entity? One could argue that IDE's and Compilers each revolutionized the world.
Your average person has no idea what an IDE or compiler is. Many more people already know what ChatGPT is right now than will probably ever know what either of those two words mean.
That's because people haven't been imaginative enough to use them that way (they're too busy jailbreaking it to say racist things or proselytizing on social media). Even in past 24 hours some people have already found it use in drug discovery using its ability to synthesize and relate different types of knowledge. One of the main ways new knowledge arises is through connecting knowledges in disparate areas and finding relationships among them, and LLMs (especially GPT-4) has been demonstrated to be quite good in this area.
Seems like you're responding to a comment completely unrelated to mine...not sure what happened here. I never said otherwise.
