It goes back to my original point, that I suspect AGI will come from an AI that is essentially a master of all APIs. We can go back and forth splinting hairs about whether inserting a compute module into a neural net (organic or not) grants geniousness or assistance, but the overall point stands; there will be a single interface that can take any variety of inputs and properly parse and shape them, push them through the correct "APIs", and then take the results to form a clear and correct output. Whether or not it used it's neural net or transistor adders circuits to arrive at the answer would be immaterial.
