In the sense that I believe that
cogito, ergo sum is the only conclusion that one can make with 100% certainty, I would probably technically count as a solipsist under definition one.
"God does not exist" is a different conclusion, so I obviously can't make it with 100% certainty. So I am also technically an agnostic.
In practice, though, I am an atheist who believes that other people exist.
