AI 'is a year away from knowing more than all human experts', those startled experts predict
AI will be ready to score full marks on one of the world's most challenging knowledge tests branded Humanity's Last Exam (HLE) in a matter of months, developers claim.
HLE was set up by tech bosses to see just how intelligent their systems are and consists of 2,500 meticulously chosen questions, spanning around a hundred topics from rocket science and mythology to physiology.
Each one requires at least PhD levels of understanding and to achieve a score even close to 100 per cent would earn someone the title of a 'universal expert'.

The question is how to be rid of this clown and reverse course ... two different tasks.
AI doesn't do "I". It mainly does regurgitation and a bit of correlation. It does, however, undoubtedly do lies because, being unable to think, it will offer an answer based on its models of probability and present it as if it were factual.
As for "at least PhD levels of understanding", it is the sort of thing said by someone who has no idea of what a PhD involves.
It reminds me of some sorts of characteristically American twaddle such as "you have to have an IQ of 140 to be a genius". It makes me suspect that many Americans think "genius" means 'one of the cleverest boys in my High School class'.
Net Zero is too good for Ed. He is a net debit from the sum of human understanding
James - we seem to be stuck with him until the failure of Net Zero causes so much damage that even the BBC has to admit it.
dearieme - I'm comfortable with naming the "I" in AI as intelligence. It isn't human and it makes mistakes, but is already able to summarise many subjects and issues much more cogently than most humans. Trust may be the issue, we'll expect it to be infallible.
