Where does "almost unlimited" come into the picture though? I see people talking like AGI will be unlimited when it will be limited by available compute resources, and like I suggested, being 'first' might come at the cost of the war chest you'd need to access those resources.
What does it take to instantiate 1 million agents? Who has that kind of money and hardware? Would they still have it if they burn everything in the tank to be first?

Any hyperscaler plus most geopolitical main players. So the ones who matter.
- pertymcpert 2y agoOnce you have AGI you use it to collect resources to cripple competitors and to build a snowball effect to make yourself unbeatable. 3 months of AGI is enough in the right hands to dominate the world economically.

And the most likely case is that the first AGI is more expensive to run than a human, a few months of having overly expensive human level AI bots wont disrupt the world at all.
