Can you quote where I said that it can't be done? I only said it won't be done in a matter of months like you claimed.
> "can do any economic task humans currently do", that is within the range of a "few months,"
I think it's extremely unlikely that anything of the sort will be done by 2030 in any profession. I feel confident that I'll still have a job as a software developer in 2040 if I'm not in retirement by then.
Now the real question - how long until they can perform ANY "economic task" (or at least any office job)?
I don't think that's happening within our lifetimes. Certainly not within 20 years and to predict that this is coming within "months" isn't just silly, it's completely delusional.
> Your mistake is thinking that having "an abundance of data" is the bottleneck.
That, and the economics of building a billion-dollar supercomputer just to replace a junior software developer. And we're STILL just talking about software development.
How about any real engineering discipline, how many months before one of those jobs can be done by AI?
