Card is slightly odd naming indeed. Criticisms aside (sigh), according to Wikipedia, the term was introduced when proposed by mostly Googlers, with the original paper [0] submitted in 2018. To quote, """In this paper, we pro

There are at least two distinct AGI definitions. Thus, people use AGI to mean two different things today. I suspect one def. is "plain language" and one is "jargony". Or one is imprecise and one is specific. Maybe the
