I’ll take a different tact than previous answers and say we already do this - a modern superscalar CPU is essentially an engine for turning sequential code into 6-8 (or more!) simultaneous operations that are dispatched all at once. Downstream, some 4-8 (or more!) ops are retired at once, their operations complete. This is all in a single core.
