Spoiler alert: They will not.

Anyone claiming they're anywhere near something even remotely resembling AGI is simply lying.

What happened to "we're a couple years away from AGI"? Where's the Scaaaaaaryyyyyyy self aware techno god GPT-5? It's all BS to BS investors with. All of the rumored new models that were supposed to be out by now are nowhere to be seen because internally the improvement rate has cratered.

If anything LLMs have delayed AGI by a decade by rerouting massive amounts of funding and attention away from promising areas and into stochastic parrots
