I mean, like, immortality? Abundance? Perfect health? World peace via all mentioned means and improved coordination? Human intelligence augmentation, where by intelligence I mean everything including and not limiting creativity, wisdom, perception clarity and self-awareness? Space colonization, which is first of all, ability to opt out from our current civilization and try something else?
You can say “but humans can invent all of this eventually anyway” but I dare to remind you that there is 14000 children dying every day and, conditional of alignment, AGI is a fastest way to stop it.
14000 children dying every day means that getting solution even an hour earlier saves in expectation ~583 of them which seems to be really worthy? “Children not dying” is pretty much compelling thing to want it even a bit sooner.

Do you care that much about which way is fastest? Just “get the things you like a bit sooner” doesn’t feel super compelling to me.

Good point
Do you think there’s a pathway to immortality without AGI? We still haven’t made any more progesss on aging than the Romans did.
