I thought this was funny at the time, but I think as more time passes it does highlight the stark gulf that exists between the capability of the most advanced AI systems and what we expect as "normal competency" from the most average person.
Yes, but now we're at the point where we can compare AI to a person, whereas five years ago the gap was so big that that was just unthinkable.
But which people? Those people which show that a supplement of extra intelligence, also synthetic, is sought.
Tale as old as time. We can make nice software systems but general purpose AI / Agents isn't here yet.
In short: the natural order of things is that computers are better at thinking, and people are better at manual labor. Which is the opposite of what we wanted.
I choose a direction and apply force.
