Interesting observation. I envision Texai as a multitude of specialized agents

Not at all. It is catering to their desires and refraining from
forcibly educating them.
IMHO :
The stated expected benefit of AGI development is overly ambitious on the
sciencetechnology side and not ambitious enough on the socialeconomy
side. For AGI to become the Next Big Thing it does not really have to come
up with the best medical researcher. Nor would a great medical

So IMHO if you want to sell AGI to investors you better start with
replacing
travel agents, brokers, receptionists, personal assistants etc. etc.
rather than
researchers.
I'm sorry, but this makes no sense at all: this is a complete negation of
what AGI means.
Actually . . . . sorry,
Well, I haven't seen any intelligent responses to this so I'll answer it
myself:

We may well see a variety of proto-AGI applications in different
domains, sorta midway between narrow-AI and human-level AGI, including
stuff like
-- maidbots
-- AI financial traders that don't just execute machine learning
algorithms, but grok context, adapt to regime changes, etc.
Hmmm...
It's pretty hard to project the timing of different early-stage AGI
applications, as this depends on the particular route taken to AGI,
and there are many possible routes...
