Running about 6 AI agents on knowledge work tasks these days, and honestly? The consensus in tech circles holds up—AGI remains more fiction than fact. Sure, automation's hitting some real use cases, but there's a massive gap between what these models can do and what the hype machine keeps selling. The practical reality? Most of us are still doing the heavy lifting while agents handle specific, narrowly-defined jobs. Until we see genuine reasoning breakthroughs, AGI talk is just noise.

Haha, after going through 6 agents I finally understand this matter, I said long ago—AGI is all hype, there are hardly any that can actually get the job done.

Damn it, really, after running 6 agents I still have to clean up after myself, AGI is just a joke.

Brother, you are absolutely right. I am also tired of the hype around AGI, with people constantly boasting about how powerful certain models are, but in practice, it's just like that.
Wait, are you saying that 6 agents are running together? How effective is that? Can it really reduce the workload?
To be honest, the current agents can only handle some repetitive dirty work; true complex reasoning still requires humans. This whole AGI narrative has indeed gone overboard.
And yet, there are still people on Twitter shouting that AGI will be here next year... Heh.

Well... 6 agents running knowledge work? Sounds good, but I bet five bucks that most of the time I'll still have to manually fix bugs.
