GI is a concept, SI is a matter of degree imho. What sets humans apart from AI right now, is specific types of out-of-the-box thinking. Let's say there's a bridge, an AI gets to control a robot, and is awarded points for crossing that bridge. I think you can be pretty sure that over time, the AI will figure out how to control the robot's limbs, move toward opposite side of the bridge, and find its way around obstacles. Meanwhile, humans may walk back & forth, because they enjoy crossing the bridge. Or stand in the middle for an hour, watching boats pass underneath. Some asshats may climb it. On a hot sunny day, others may go halfway & then jump off for a refreshing swim. Yet others may do some protest, and use the bridge as a scaffold to hang a banner from. Etc etc. Much such behavior defies logic. But yet, the bridge will primarily be used as intended, to cross from side to side. And humans go about in this fashion in many if not all their activities. When I see AIs that show similar creative / out-of-box behavior, while remaining mostly goal-oriented, and learn from its mistakes without humans nudging it every step of the way, then I think we'll have achieved AGI. Beyond that, SI is just a matter of scale & efficiency.
