The goal of AGI is to automate human labor. It requires solving hard problems like vision, language, robotics, art, and modeling human behavior.
We don't need to define intelligence to solve these problems. If you want to define intelligence as survival, then that is not what we want to build. We want the type of intelligence that can produce antibiotics, not the type that learns to evade them. It is also not the Turing test, because that requires reproducing human weaknesses as well as skills. If you want to define intelligence as the goal, then the appropriate measure is dollars per hour. Lossless compression is a useful way to measure language models, but not the other human skills required to automate work. With regard to language, it is more useful than a Turing test because it allows machines to predict text faster and more accurately than humans without being penalized for it.

They seem to have not used it yet got GPT-2.
