'AGI isn't coding solved — it's writing solved': a contrarian take on the coding benchmark race
rubenhassid · x · 2026-09-03
Reacting to his own jab at new AI naming trends, the author argues that AGI is not "coding solved" but "writing solved" — that long-form natural language writing, not the coding benchmarks labs chase today, is the real yardstick for general intelligence. A one-liner take that pushes back on the current coding-centric AGI narrative.
