By saying "I no longer think that", it's not necessarily that he thinks ChatGPT is smart than humans. Google Search has been far more capable at indexing and retrieving information than humans for over two decades now. He's talking about AGI no longer being 30-50 years away but instead may arrive far sooner than society is ready to deal with.

Is he? Have you asked him? Maybe somebody should ask him to clarify his statement.

Who are you arguing against? You are just repeating the comment you replied to.
