Original sin mate. We must suffer an appreciation of the divine while being simultaneously unable to fulfill it. Accept you humanity and be kind to yourself about it.

This insistence by SAAS vendors upon not protecting you from financial ruin must surely be some sort of deadweight loss. Sure you might make a few quick wins from careless users but overall it creates an environment of distrust where users

On your second point there is a further distinction between, can humanity create AGI and can a human design and implement an AGI. At present we are churning out intelligent beings at an alarming rate with little understanding of what we are

Not the person asked, but in time honoured tradition I will venture forth that the key difference is billions of years of evolution. Innumerable blooms and culls. And a system that is vertically integrated to its core and self sustaining.

It’s amazing what even the most subtle perturbation in output can tell you about the internal state of the code.
