Just about every rant on Marcus or other AI critics is some combination of "you aren't admitting these things are making great progress on the benchmarks" (implying the false idea that "a whole lot of progress" adds up to human level AI) and "you are making 'human level' an unfair moving target by not having a benchmark for it". The thing about this is that if there was a real "human level benchmark", we'd be 80% done but we can't and we aren't. Marcus and other critics have drawn explicit lines (spatial understanding, composibility, etc)but even those being crossed won't prove human-level understanding. There is no proof of human, just a strong enough demonstration. And if someone can point to dumb stuff in the demo, it isn't strong.
