Plenty of people have been using the term AGI for the general purpose nature of what the SOTA LLMs can do. And, I think it's reasonable, because they are very general when you compare them to the previous generation of narrow AI models. We don't have another good term. Unfortunately, "AGI" is also overloaded to mean not just general purpose but also alive, embodied, complete emulation of human, sentient, godlike, etc. And everyone has a slightly different definition of which humanlike or godlike characteristics of people or animals something should have to be qualified as AGI. I think this is a failure of language or language use as much as anything. But prior to having something like GPT-4 or Claude-3 with vision you had to train a different model or use a different library for every task. Now you can use the same model for many very different tasks. It's clearly got the "general" part, even though it doesn't have _all_ of the cognitive abilities of humans or even animals.
