Many in the AI community are questioning: does Zero1 qualify as AGI? The answer remains no, at least for now. Although its reasoning, problem-solving, and scientific understanding are impressive, it lacks the essential qualities of sentience and consciousness.

As one professional summarized, Zero1 is an extraordinary narrow AI but not a mind—or a conscious agent—in the human sense.
