Current AI is never going to do better than us in every category, it can only do better in us in categories where it's possible to generate an infinite amount of verifiable synthetic data (math and programming). AI is still just as bad at sales, marketing, writing and anything involving human subjective appeal as it was a year ago. And it's fundamentally handicapped in being unable to acquire new domain knowledge that doesn't fit in a few hundred thousand tokens of context.
Even if this turns out to be true, I don't think it will necessarily matter.
So much money was already burned, by so powerful people in incestuous relationship with governments, that I don't think this is an important point anymore.
All of these have objective metrics (units sold, clicks, likes, etc) and are thus verifiable in principle.
There has never been a time in our history where excess labour has been treated with any grace, and I think it's rather delusional to think that will start suddenly now.
most countries around the world still have democracy, so voting the the solution. what I don't know is how to fight populism... because that is the achilles heel of democracy... for now, spreading the knowledge is probably all we can do, people have to (and will in time) learn who can be trusted and who cannot.
but honestly I don't buy into sci-fi "AI will kill us all or enslave us" premise. that is only our anthropomorphisation of the artificial intelligence. what I see as more probably that AI could rule us in stead of the human politics that rule us now. why not have LLM political parties that could be voted? each one with open weights and transparent prompts? without emotion, corruption and greed? wouldn't that be better than current situation?
