The speaker thinks an AI trained to rank very highly across many skills could be extraordinarily capable, whereas it would be extremely rare or nearly impossible for one human to possess all those skills at once.

“successful companies all at once and then no one else can really do that or at least has succeeded at doing that it's just because of the sort of multiplicative like you need it to be like 90th percentile and like each of these 10 10 domains which is just very very unlikely but if you could have an uh if you had an ai that's sort of like you could just train to be like really high percentile in all of these skills in such a way that no human is it would be like extremely rare or you know infinitesimally unlikely”

“for any particular human to have all of those skills at once i think you would just actually just be really really really good at changing the world in all of these like concrete and important ways just like sort of elon has actually done that”
