Anthropic chief says AI could surpass “almost all humans at almost everything”

Agreed.

shortly after 2027

I doubt that.

I think that there are near-term things that have real value that one can build with existing approaches. However, I think that we are still a fair bit of research away from beating humans across the board.

Three years is "build a software package when you already know what you're doing", not "start on a grand research program" timescale.
