Original statement
“There's no such thing as AGI. There is human-level AI, but human intelligence is extremely specialised. So calling it general intelligence is complete nonsense.”
Normalized claim
Artificial General Intelligence as commonly conceived does not exist as a meaningful category because human intelligence is specialized.
A falsifiable interpretation, separate from the exact source text.
Resolution criteria
Continued absence of a widely accepted operational definition and demonstration of AGI that satisfies LeCun’s critique, or broad scientific consensus rejecting the term, by 2035.
Market context
No high-confidence matching market is linked. Loose thematic matches are not shown.
Resolution
This prediction remains open.
