That’s like saying “many people say the Earth is flat and I’m wondering why anyone hasn’t fallen off the edge yet”.
“Many people say” doesn’t translate to reality. Maybe AGI will kill us all, maybe it won’t (I think we’re doing a fine job of that ourselves, no need for a machine’s help), but we’re definitely not at AGI, except in the minds of a few deluded people (or scammers).
