I don’t know what estimates exist for the bit rate of SETI signals, this paper seems to imply 0.01 bits per second: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0094576511001780 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S00945... If we assume GPT4 is a trillion parameters, each 16 bits, then this would require 5000 years to transmit (quite aside from any error correction or the description of how the parameters should be arranged). I would hope that our AI would be able to bootstrap to FTL in that time.
