If you let a lawyer, doctor or even a programmer actually work deeply with it for a couple of months I don't think they would call it AGI, whatever your definition of AGI is. It's a super helpful tool with remarkable capabilities but non factuality, no memory, little reasoning and occasional hallucinations make it unreliable and therefore non AGI imo.

Couple of months?!? Couple of minutes more like.

It still goes round in circles and makes things up (which it later "knows" the right answer to).

None of that is anywhere near AGI as it's not general intelligence.
