AGI is science fiction so of course not
People also put a lot of emphasis on the "I" in Artificial General Intelligence. It gives us the impression that we will have some kind of contraption with a button on it, and every time you push the button it conjures up a new, distinct digital agent of Albert Einstein. For a long, long time, at best, these things will conjure your average Redditor. People think if we create AGI we can tell computers to compose Mozart, but we'll be lucky if we get anywhere farther than "I glued my balls to my butthole again."
