This plot outlines the performance levels of artificial intelligence (AI) and human intelligence starting from the early computer age and extrapolating into the future. Early AI came with a subhuman performance and varying degrees of success. Currently, we are witnessing narrow task-specific AI applications that are able to match and occasionally surpass human intelligence4–6,9. It is expected that general AI will surpass human performance in specific applications within the coming years. Humans will potentially benefit from the human-AI interaction, bringing them to higher levels of intelligence.
