Really feels like end game type stuff - AI designing its own next versions, designing its own chips, etc..
The advancement is slow, but fast - like a plant growing. We really are the boiling frogs now aren’t we?
And the people with eyes wide open are us, and anyone that frequents this site really. Is this Milliways?

- Schlagbohrer 3mo agoGeoffrey Hinton pointed out that exponential growth can be hard to see in the near term (2-3 years) because that part is a bit within predictions, but, it's the exponential part which means 5+ years out is totally unpredictable.
- reducesuffering 3mo agoLol even few people here are grappling with the exponential unfolding before us. There are so few deeply thought through takes of where we’re going and why there are extremely concerning issues.
- preg_match 3mo agoThe bottleneck is physical stuff: chip fab is still a whoooooole beast. Doesn't matter too much if AI can design chips, the lead times are still in the years. Assuming you use existing fabs. If you need new fabs, now it's decades. And there's not too too much that can be done here. Robotics, sure, but robotics are very behind AI because physical space is just hard. We can't, right now, just spin up like 1000 robots and build a fab.
