alt Hacker NewsIn my opinion, this article is talking about people who get into long conversations and become convinced the model is “intelligent”, maybe even “AGI”. This seems to be a trap people are falling into, even in 2026.

Initial definitions of AGI (as of 2014) are long surpassed. Then, AGI was defined as something that is general enough to work in many fields and orient themselves. It did not include being smarter than humans or even having comparable intelligence to humans. By original standards, we have AGI already for some time.
Current AGI definitions are intentionally vague.
It's definitely talking about that, but it's also talking about all of us:
- fawning over how amazing these tools are
- believing everything OpenAI and Anthropic say about how powerful and dangerous their product is
- minimizing the amount of human effort and involvement in every "AI" achievement
