I don't suggest the CEO's motives are sinister when they promote AGI. I think many believe in the technology but are acutely aware the window of opportunity is short. With no killer use case the numbers simply don’t stack up. theoldmarketersmusings.substack.com/p/is-the-agi...

Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses usually include an LED that lights up when the user is recording other people. One hobbyist is charging a $60 to disable that light, and has a growing list of customers around the country.
