OpenAI has been pushing the idea that these things are generic—and therefore the path to AGI—from the beginning. Their entire sales pitch to investors is that they have the lead on the tech that is most likely to replace all jobs.
If the whole thing turns out to be a really nifty commodity component in other people's pipelines, the investors won't get a return on any kind of reasonable timetable. So OpenAI keeps pushing the AGI line even as it falls apart.
