AGI as things stand currently is a pipe dream and corporations like OpenAI making grand mission statements about AGI is nothing but a gimmick to boost their stock value and to sound like a corporation that cares about "ethics" (think Google's "do no evil").
AI is useful in specialised applications. Like this: China puts trust in AI to maintain largest high-speed rail network on Earth
Anyone hawking AGI is a conman like how Musk peddles techno-utopianism when talking about "colonising Mars" while being high on ketamine.
