I suppose they have to appeal to average users, but the examples in the videos are always so corny. By "AGI" they mean you sitting on a couch and asking a robot to draw a rocket ship... and then make it into an uninspired game with Blender? Boring marketing campaigns? Ebay listings?

One would expect something like "review my graduate thesis for a new area of cancer research", but it is always some boring non-tasks like ordering lunch.

Their video is quite interesting. If that way of using a computer actually becomes mainstream, it would mean every tool or service just needs a UI and an API for the user's AI. The current trend of bolting AI features onto every app is starting to feel very unnecessary.

If the numerous benchmarks in that post are to be believed, Astra is really next level. I can't wait to try it out!
