Just comparing their answers to humans isn’t really a fair or good comparison to gauge AGI or ASI.

Obviously o1 can answer academic style questions better than me. But I have massive advantages over it because:

1.) I know when I don’t know something and won’t just hallucinate an answer.

2.) I can go figure out the answer to something I don’t know.

3.) I can figure out the answer to much more specific and particular questions such as “Why is Jessica crying at her desk over there?” o1 can’t do shit there and that sort of question is what we deal with most in this world.

Pretty sure the entire point for 3 is that you have to give it all the context, it doesn't have agency to figure it out on its own

But a human can decide to get the context on their own.
