> If we let x be the maximum complexity of a task at which AI performs as well as a human, then I would argue that x has been growing at an accelerating pace over the past few decades.

At ONE task, yes. But humans are average at many things but excel at being able to adapt to many different tasks, all the time. Typical AIs (as we know them now) cannot ever hope to replicate that.




This seems to have been linked to a lot recently but I feel it is relevant to the discussion on technology advances pertaining to AI.
