It feels like some of the comments are responding to the title, not the contents of the article.
Maybe a more descriptive but longer title would be: AGI will work with multimodal inputs and outputs embedded in a physical environment rather than a frankenstein combination of single-modal models (what today is called multimodal) and throwing more computational resources at the problem (scale maximalism) will be improved with thoughtful theoretical approaches to data and training.
