Would you consider the aggregate capabilities of all AIs that have
been created to date, as a general intelligence? In the spirit of what
Minsky said here:
"Each practitioner thinks there’s one magic way to get a machine to be
smart, and so they’re all wasting their time in a sense. On the other
hand, each of them is improving some particular method, so maybe
someday in the near future, or maybe it’s two generations away,
someone else will come around and say, ‘Let’s put all these together,’
and then it will be smart."

I wrote that human general intelligence, consists of the following
abilities:
* Communicate via natural language
* Learn, adapt, and grow
* Move through a dynamic environment
* Recognize sights and sounds
* Be creative in music, art, writing and invention
* Reason with logic and rationality to solve problems
I think progress exists across each of these domains. While the best
humans in their area of expertise may beat the best AIs, it is
arguable that the AI systems which exist in these domains are better
than the average human in that area.
This article I wrote in 2020 is quite dated, but it shows that even
back then, we have machines that could be called creative:

If we could somehow clobber together all the AIs that we have made so
far, and integrate them into a robot body. Would that be something we
could regard as generally intelligent? And if not, what else would
need to be done?

The human brain seems to consist of different modules that evolved with
different sensory systems plus some integrating/reacting system. This
integrating system is where anticipation, learning, planning, modeling,
self-awareness are located.
