I think you misunderstood what I meant about setting a high bar. First, passing the bar is a necessary but not sufficient condition for superintelligence. Secondly, by "fair for" I meant it's fair to set a high bar, not that this particular bar is the one fair bar for measuring intelligence. It's obvious that usefulness of an analogy generator is a matter of degree. Eg, a uniform random string generator is guaranteed to produce all possible insightful analogies, but would not be considered useful or intelligent.

I think you're basically agreeing with me. Ie, current models are not superintelligent. Even though they can "think" super fast, they don't pass a minimum bar of producing novel and useful connections between domains without significant human intervention. And, our evaluation of their abilities is clouded by the way in which their intelligence differs from our own.
