lmao no. We have very good reason to believe that there will always be some things which AI will never be able to solve reasonably. This is because of P = NP. AI is still an algorithm and subject to the same restrictions as other computation. Sure, in the set of NP problems even 90% of them can be solved in a reasonable amount of time, but out of the remaining 10% 9 will require exponentially more resources, and out of the remaining 1% .9 will require exponentially more on top of that and so forth.
AI only seems to be useful to approximate human ability in certain easy tasks, but stuff like proofs in mathematics, science, and even just writing a paragraph are on a completely different level. It's probably impossible to do that stuff with silicon computation, there may be some sort of exotic computing which comes out in the future which changes that, like some sort of biology based computer, but that's not happening any time soon. OP's post is just as baseless speculation as the article he posted.
