Lets take this number for example >Global software spending: $1.4T/year. Out of this number how much of this goes to payroll that goes to humans versus how much of this goes to non-human infrastructure costs. The numbers suggest this is anywhere from 60 to 90%, with 70% being a reasonable average figure. Just under a trillion dollars paid directly to humans would disappear if AI somehow captured all of this market. Moreso the AI industry needs to capture these gains very fast or they will be crushed by interest payments on the massive debts they've accrued. >ven though Amodei hopes to cure most major disease in the next 5-10 years The average development time for medicine is 10 to 15 years before a single dollar is earned from said medicine. AI will shave very little off that as human testing and our stupidly complex bodies introduce all kinds of problems. Furthermore running head long into blindly using AI medicine is how you produce X risks from super intelligence AI. The speed at which AI has to develop in which to get profitability is the biggest risk, a potentially catastrophic risk at that.
