Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not to mention the risk of fire if something goes wrong in the cooking process. (Or, less directly, the risk of getting sick from improperly-cooked food.)

If I wasn’t so tired and literally dropping off to sleep right now, I could make a decent argument that cooking requires AGI. Driving in our complex urban environments too for that matter.

Adjusted Gross Income? (Not meaning to be obtuse, but I'm not familiar with the acronym in this context.)

Artificial General Intelligence, or "strong" AI. A lot of the things we consider AI today is often called "weak" or "narrow" AI, in that its scoped to very specific tasks. Hotdog/Not Hotdog kind of things. General intelligence is more like our kind of intelligence, where it is adaptable to a wide variety of tasks without necessarily needing an entirely different model or structure.
