If you gave Mythos infinite energy and compute, it still would not autonomously create the next coherent model.

It's a good bar, or at least I don't see your counterargument. The resources to make Mythos were obviously available, but the previous gen models could not manage to build it on their own regardless. It's the bar we have set (solving increasingly complex novel problems in perpetuity), and the original bar for AGI.

> I think most people are vastly underestimating just how far this technology can go

It's easy to say this when you don't define "this technology", isn't it? We can easily point to IBM Watson and say this is the same technology, or point at a transistor and say we'd be nowhere without those so we "vastly underestimated" them…

Now, if we're talking about just how far sophistry can go, there does appear to be no limit, and apparently we can scale it.
