Instead of talking about AIs being "smart", it makes more sense to break it down into different cognitive abilities.

Like, AI already has better language learning speed than any human (e.g. it can read a dictionary and grammar book of a language that isn't in its training set and speak it fluently in seconds).

o1 is quite good at math, coding, symbolic logic, and divergent thinking.

However, it's not superhuman at epistemics, creative problem-solving, or long-term planning (yet).

The question is: AI is rapidly getting better. By the time a baby born today grows up, how many cognitive abilities will it be better at than an AI? Will there be any?
