Computational power does not grow at the rate of over 100x within the span of “a few years”. If that were the case we’d have vastly more powerful kit by now.

- ilaksh 3y agoI didn't quite say that. The efficiency of this very specific application absolutely can and almost certainly will increase by more than one order of magnitude within four years. It's got a massive new investment and research focus, is a very specific application, and room for improvement in AI model, software, and hardware. Even if we have to "cheat" to get to 100 times performance in less than five years the effect will be the same. For example, there might be a way to accelerate something like the Tree of Thoughts in hardware. So if the hardware can't actually speed up by that much, the effectiveness of the system still has increased greatly.
