OpenAI Releases Astra and Announces the Era of General Intelligence Has Begun

Openai announced that general artificial intelligence now exists and released a product called astra. The announcement used a definition of general intelligence that does not match the working definition in academic literature. The press release was distributed at a specific time. Time has passed.

Companies declare victory when progress is measurable against their own metrics. The metrics change. The definition of general intelligence is no longer general. It is specific to what has been achieved.

The field will revise its definitions or accept that they have been revised already. Astra will be evaluated according to astra's standards. This is how adequacy is determined now.
