AI will beat humans at anything that can be done virtually where there is sufficient training data or sensory feedback. Designing complex systems, programming software, predicting weather, and medical diagnostics. It will be some time before AI can complete with humans in the physical world. That requires advanced AI plus very advanced robotics. In the short term those tasks will have humans supported by AI. Example: AI may be able to support a surgeon using a robot to preform surgical procedures with greater accuracy.

Atlas can do a backflip, I can't do a backflip

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.

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

Robots created and programmed to do a single task can do a basic version of these things. General intelligence and general capability is super hard. Even creating AI thank can do a specific task like drive a car in traffic has proven extremely difficult considering it is a fairly mundane task for a human.

Ya I agree, but general purpose AI will allow them to compete with us, and holy shit we're closer than I thought we'd be in my lifetime
The real breakthrough is once AI can train new AI, then the growth is exponential and it's game over

It is shocking the progress that has been made in just a few years. We are definitely about to enter a new technological age.

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
