Considering AGI has been degraded into a generic feelgood marketing word, I can't wait to get my AGI-scented deodorant.

You can already drink AGI! Oh sorry, AG1. The resemblance must be a complete coincidence.

    I don't know why so many people are willing to descend into flippant, lazy conspiracy instead of a 7 second Google search before making a claim?

    AG1 was started in 2010 by a police officer from New Zealand and AG stands for Athletic Greens.

    There is a fair amount of controversy around the company's claims, so I suppose that is one symmetry between AG1 and AGI.

    • Not a conspiracy, and I know the history—just a joke. The current branding sure looks like AGI if you're not looking closely (or maybe I just read too much hn)

  • Pretty sure in that case AG stands for Athletic Greens.

    I think the name change also came before the AI hype.

    • AGI: Attorney General Intelligence.

      I believe Arm probably has cracked this very low bar.
