It's a shame the headline stopped where it did. The article continues, "... or stop at the human-ability station." This makes for a much more interesting discussion (only because we're human).

We all measure AI progress and its rate of progress differently. That's the common debate, isn't it? But however we arrive at that axis, human ability is a point on it. It will be a point in time. And there's no reason to believe it's a special point that machine intelligence would notice or throttle itself at. So as progress goes rushing, indifferently, past... don't things get interesting?
