Yes, this is one of the things we are working towards with Novamente. Unfortunately, meeting this "low barrier" based on a genuine AGI architecture is a lot more work than doing so in a more bogus way based on an architecture without growth potential...

Ben, If I am beating a dead horse, please feel free to ignore this, but I'm imagining a prototype that shows glimmerings of AGI. Such a system, though not useful or commercially viable, would sometimes act in interesting, even creepy, ways. It might be inconsistent and buggy, and work in a limited domain. This sets a low barrier, since existing systems occasionally meet this description. The key difference is that the hypothesized prototype would have an AGI engine under it and would rapidly improve.
