Reply to comment by PedroEglasias in Will there be anything Humans are superior in compared to AI? by 77Sage77

Mechanically a backflip isn't a complicated compared to many other activities humans do. Repairing an engine, or installing electrical systems, painting and oil painting, playing the violin. When we have an AI controlled robot that can do all those things it will be safe to say AI has won. I'm not saying it isn't possible. It will just take time.

Robots can already play instruments, robots already build circuit boards, robots can already paint pictures.

Admittedly they need pre-programming, but general purpose AI is the solution to that problem, and we're very close

Edit. lol why downvote ?

robot playing violin

robot building complex circuit boards (admittedly this is different to installing electronics in someones home, but on paper it's actually more complicated)

robot painting a picture

Robots created and programmed to do a single task can do a basic version of these things. General intelligence and general capability is super hard. Even creating AI thank can do a specific task like drive a car in traffic has proven extremely difficult considering it is a fairly mundane task for a human.

Ya I agree, but general purpose AI will allow them to compete with us, and holy shit we're closer than I thought we'd be in my lifetime

The real breakthrough is once AI can train new AI, then the growth is exponential and it's game over

It is shocking the progress that has been made in just a few years. We are definitely about to enter a new technological age.
