okay, what if this benchmark were just called Arc, and all you knew about it was what questions it asked? it just looks like a bunch of arcade games, which should tell you that it doesn't test AGI at all.

on the flip side, the idea that most tests are bad, even standardized tests, the tests that you scored well on that gave you all your opportunities in life: it cuts to the emotional, grounded core, the absolute foundation, of too many people. in the crowd of hacker news commenters; people who buy anthropic shares at retail; the people who work at tech companies; and their kids, families, etc., who are a bunch of nobodies, there are a lot more incentives to believe "stupid fucking arcade games test AGI" than not.
