AGI is Here!?!?!
Welcome your personal Vazir
What is AGI. AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence. It is what all these AI companies are barrelling towards. Instead of me telling you, why don’t we ask Claude:
AGI stands for Artificial General Intelligence— an AI system capable of performing any intellectual task that a human can, at or above human level, across arbitrary domains.
Here’s how it differs from what we have today:
Narrow AI (current) — systems trained for specific tasks: playing chess, recognizing images, generating text. >They fail badly outside their domain.
AGI (hypothetical) — a system that can reason, learn, and adapt across any domain without being specifically trained for it — like a person who can pick up a new skill, transfer knowledge, and apply common sense.
Key capabilities typically associated with AGI:
- Transfer learning across unrelated domains
- Causal and abstract reasoning
- Long-horizon planning
- Learning from minimal examples
- Understanding novel situations without explicit training
Where things stand in 2026: There’s genuine debate about how close we are. Large language models like me have surprised people with generalization ability, but most researchers think we still lack robust common sense, true causal understanding, and reliable reasoning in truly novel situations. Some labs (including Anthropic, OpenAI, and DeepMind) have stated AGI is a near-term goal; others think it’s decades away or requires fundamentally new approaches.
The term is also somewhat contested — there’s no agreed scientific definition of when something “counts” as AGI, which makes the debate partly philosophical.
And now let’s see what our “friend” Jensen Huang (CEO of Nvidia) has to say in an interview with Lex Friedman. In this interview he says that yes we have achieved AGI. For some background Lex is asking if AI can run a company right now and make that company worth more than a billion dollars. And his answer is...interesting...
He says:
You said a billion and you didn’t say forever and and so for example uh it is not out of the question that uh a claw was able to create a web service some interesting little app that all of a sudden you know a few billion people used for 50 and then it went out of business again shortly after. Now, we saw a whole bunch of those type of companies during the internet era and most of the those websites were not anything more sophisticated than what Open Claw could generate today.
He ends the exchange with something even more telling “Now the odds of of of you know a 100,000 of those agents um building Nvidia is 0%.”
I know many people hate and are even scared of AI. There is a lot of noise about it replacing jobs and the human race diving into a dystopian future. While we might be heading towards a dystopian future it’s not because of AI. It’s because of the people in control of it. I find the end of that exchange fascinating because Jenson says earlier that AI can build things that go viral and make money fast but those companies won’t have staying power to last a long time. Then he says at the end of the exchange that not even if you had 100,000 of those agents that there is 0%...not 10% not even 1%...literally 0% chance they could build Nvidia. Funny how they can replace every employee stops at them.
So which one is it? Is AI replacing us or not? Sounds like were not close. If not even 100,000 agents working nonstop could build a company like Nvidia. Remember machines don’t eat, sleep, need PTO. They have no emotion, they are rational and only base their decisions on objective truth and knowledge not subjective feelings. Isn’t this the appeal of AI? It’s sterile and black and white. And them working non-stop couldn’t make an Nvidia?
So maybe there is something about us meatbags that makes a difference? Maybe when dealing with other humans you can’t always be sterile and clinical. You sometimes need to throw logic out of the arena to achieve the greater good.
For those interested in this particular exchange you can see it below
What’s the point???
You’re probably wondering what is the point of all of this. And to be honest I don’t really know...
I’m just kidding, off course I’m not stalling in hopes that I can figure out how to land the point home...
Not at all...
...
......
All kidding aside. The point of all of this is these companies need money and A LOT of it. It was reported that Antrhopic last year estimated they would lose $5.2 billion and OpenAI estimated loss was $21.2 billion. Both companies are growing at an unheard of pace but the math is still the math. Most of their revenue is from business customers. So these companies need hype and A LOT of it. What better way to generate that by telling company leaders that they can decrease overhead an REPLACE their employees. They’re salivating at the thought of their bonus checks and stock price. For normal people they are either excited or scared. Either way the hype train continues to move forward.
There are three sides to a story
There are three sides to a story one from each side and the truth. The truth is usually somewhere in the middle. Is AI replacing us all in the coming months? No. Is AI all hype and you shouldn’t care about it? Also no. Is AI a very powerful tool that if used properly can bring ease to your life and give you back some time? Absolutely, yes!
If there is one thing I would like you to take from this, it’s this; AI is a tool. Like any tool they are specialized for specific tasks. The key is identifying tasks and figuring out what are the limitations.
My next project
For the past 3 years I have been working on honing my agentic coding workflow. This year I am pressure testing it by challenging myself to build one application a month. I’m happy to say I am at seven right now! One of those applications is a AI coding harness called “Vazir”. That is just a fancy way of saying it is set of instructions meant to harness/guide the AI agent toward a goal. In this case it’s coding. I think our Jenson would say that Vazir has achieved AGI….
I am obviously kidding unless you are someone willing to give me billions of dollars. What Vazir is a very opinionated self correcting agentic coding framework based around my personal workflow.
I am not promising you’re going to become a developer overnight or become a millionaire in 3 months. What I am saying that I have built this based on my process that is proven to go from your idea to something tangible. What I need from you guys is people interested in beta testing it. I am looking for people actually willing to try it and use it. If that is you, you can find the repository here. It’s free it’s always going to be free but you will need to have a subscription of your own. I personally use Codex and Kimi K2. My goal with this is to help people get from idea to prototype and hopefully you end up building your own harness based on your specific workflow. If you are planning on testing it out reach out to me via Linkedin and I can walk you through the setup process and help you troubleshoot.
Thank you all in advance!
