What people mean by AGI varies but consider:

>The Coffee Test (Wozniak)

>A machine is required to enter an average American home and figure out how to make coffee: find the coffee machine, find the coffee, add water, find a mug, and brew the coffee by pushing the proper buttons.

That is a step yet to come.



Well, that seems like a dumb test for the intelligence part. You need a robot for that. But that means intelligence cannot exist without a physical presence" which I think is at least controversial.


I think the idea is that for many definitions of AGI it should be able to do anything a human does and negotiating the physical world is part of that. It might seem dumb as an intelligence test but would be very economically significant. The difference between a chatbot and being able to tell a bot to build an extension on your house.
