If you had told me that in 2015, we would have a tool that can iteratively search the world's best and largest unstructured database and synthesize outputs in language (any natural and structured language), I would have said that is basically AGI.

This whole desire for it to 'reason' (autonomously prime its search with a few thousand token) and 'think' (search for the best information within its parameters and synthesize that with its context) is semantic and will feel irrelevant as the technology progresses and we become more used to what these things are actually doing.

I honestly struggle to imagine what AGI will be if not an ever-improving semi-structured database (parametric or otherwise) that we become increasingly good at searching.
