It's nice to see articles that push back against the myth of AI superintelligence. A lot of people who brand themselves as "AI safety experts" preach this ideology as if it is a guaranteed fact. I've never seen any of them talk about real life present issues with AI, though.
(The superintelligence myth is a promotion strategy; OpenAI and Anthropic both lean into it because they know it boosts their stocks.)
In the case of Moldbook or FaceClaw or whatever they're calling it, a lot of the AGI talk is sillier than ever, frankly. Many people who register their bots have become entirely lost in their own sauce, convinced that because their bots are speaking in the first person, that they've somehow come alive:
It's embarrassing, really. People promoting the industry have every incentive to exaggerate their claims on Twitter for the revenue, but some of them are starting to buy into it.
Thankfully Steinberger is the first to deny that this is AGI.
