Sheer volume of intellectual work.

It takes tens of thousands of high-end compute-intensive servers to match the state change rate of an adult human brain.

If that's proportional to capacity for intellectual work, it would take low hundreds of trillions of servers to match the work capacity of the human race.

There aren't trillions of servers. There aren't even billions.

The reason why I made this post was for an in general question. But also I’ve been heavily interested if there is ANYTHING at all humans are superior in

Imagination, Creativity, Comedy, Emotions and Experience. Personally I’m trying to become a comic artist and tell stories. I feel as if AI cannot tell a comprehensive story even in the future with proper philosophy, meaning, psychological, suspense, thrill, characterizations, foreshadowing. AI will no doubt beat humans in time, creating stories and art in seconds, grammar and wording a bonus too. However I believe even if it took a human much longer that their creation would have more impact

this is just one example of what I think humans will be superior in. I’m just confused on the topic in general. There must be more so we can have a place in the world. thanks friend

Robots can already play instruments, robots already build circuit boards, robots can already paint pictures.

Admittedly they need pre-programming, but general purpose AI is the solution to that problem, and we're very close

Edit. lol why downvote ?

robot playing violin

robot building complex circuit boards (admittedly this is different to installing electronics in someones home, but on paper it's actually more complicated)

robot painting a picture

Mechanically a backflip isn't a complicated compared to many other activities humans do. Repairing an engine, or installing electrical systems, painting and oil painting, playing the violin. When we have an AI controlled robot that can do all those things it will be safe to say AI has won. I'm not saying it isn't possible. It will just take time.
