Never had a spicy lemon, so I'm already sceptical.

To be clear, I personally don't think that current models point the way towards superintelligence. But it does us no good to pretend that this is some absurd opinion from a guy who's looking for the next world revolution after the Metaverse didn't work out. Zuckerberg thinks superintelligence is close because a number of experts actively engaged in the field say that it's close. When you and I say it's not close, we're disagreeing not with crazy randos who can be dismissed out of hand, but with smart people who generally know what they're doing.
