Really depends on how "general" you define AGI to be.

To me, AGI means developing agents that can operate autonomously in the real world and make sensible decisions across a wide range of situations and domains. I don't think we're currently very close to developing these sorts of agents, although it probably isn't more than a couple decades away.

Exactly. LLMs mimic intelligence by just generating text, and since they are trained on civilization-level knowledge/data they do it very well and can seem as intelligent as humans.

The real test is to put them to novel scenarios and see how their intelligence can produce solutions to these, i.e. put it in an some sort of escape room and see if they can escape.
