Who is "we"? There are thousands of nuanced opinions on what AGI is and what it should be. So someone wrote a letter. That doesn't mean anything. It doesn't even mean that the average opinion has substantially changed. There is no consensus on anything here. Beware of so-called "experts" on this subject. There are no "AGI experts". There are AI experts, but speculation by humans on what a hypothetical superhuman intelligence might be like will never be more than, well, speculation. It's like ants trying to wrap their minds around what they imagine human philosophy to be. Your opinion on AGI is as good as mine, or as Elon Musk's, or as Eliezer Yudkowsky's. Nobody knows anything. Get comfortable with uncertainty, and don't jump to the conclusion that anything has happened just because somebody somewhere said something.
