AGI being possible (potentially even inevitable) doesn't mean that AGI based on LLMs is possible, and it's LLMs that investors have bet on. It's been pretty obvious for a while that certain problems that LLMs have aren't getting better as models get larger, so there are no grounds to expect that just making models larger is the answer to AGI. It's pretty reasonable to extrapolate that to say LLM-based AGI is impossible, and that's what the article's discussing.
