Yet. The human mind is a big bag of tricks. If the creators of AI can enumerate a large enough list of capabilities and implement those, then the product can be as good as 90% of humans, but at a fraction of the cost and a billion times the speed - then it doesn't matter if it's AGI or not. It will have economic consequences.

(And that may just be pulling out a trick, trying it, and knowing when the results aren't good enough, and so trying a different one.) The observant will note that the word "knowing" kept appearing in the previous paragraph. Can that knowing also be reduced to LLM-like tricks? Or is it an additional step?
