> AI is not “smarter” than human and won’t be for a few more years minimum. AI has collective intelligence served up individually. This is something that humans as individuals have the inverse of. Humans have to come together to arrive at hive mind, while AI is trained on hive mind, and is as a result "smarter" than individual humans in terms of baseline intelligence. Additionally the speed with which AI can learn new things supersedes that of humans (e.g., learning new languages, reading vast amounts of information and summarizing it, remembering that newly learned information in its totality when reasoning about novel tasks). This is to say, AI is already smarter than the average human, today. In a few more years we are facing AGI. Further, we have no idea how to tell when the threshold's been crossed. We can postulate. However AI is learning all of those guesses via the training data. Hence many smart people are suggesting a pause, for good and legitimate reason. We as a society are not ready.
