This severely discounts the fact that you’re comparing a model that _knows the average about everything_ to a single human’s capabilit. Also they can do it instantly, instead of having to coordinate many humans over long periods of time. You can’t straight up compare one LLM to one human

it seems that's sufficient to do a lot of things better than the average human - including coding, writing, creating poetry, summarizing and explaining things...

A human specialized in any of those things vastly outperforms the average human let alone an LLM.

You’re entirely missing the point
