I think that no-one properly answered your questions. All of the answers above talk about the quantity and how ML model can find milion dogs on milion images per night. But this is obvious and you also mention it in the post. ML models can outperform us in the speed of computation or accuracy as you say, but they can not outperform us in a truly general case as you say. At least not now.
Supervised learning can never do better than humans since, the best ML solution will have the same accuracy as the humans.
We would need something like universal problem solver, which is able to solve more and more complex problems over time and learn from it. But it seems that not so many people are working on this general AI.
