Home Speakers Jack Clark Quote This means that space mining is a perfect business opportunity for superintelligences that come online - perhaps by 2033 we will see AI-run asteroid mining corporations, bidding on contracts that human-supervised companies are not willing to pursue, due to risk or complexity.

My worry is that AI systems are both better at coordinating than humans and also much, much faster moving than us. Talk Import AI 458 / 2026 Cosmos HAI Lab Lecture, Oxford May 26, 2026
It’s time to plan for this, because AI systems are likely to get better a lot faster than people expect, and as they become more advanced we should expect profound changes to happen to people and to society. Talk Import AI 458 / 2026 Cosmos HAI Lab Lecture, Oxford May 26, 2026
That class of technology has never existed before, and yet I believe this could happen within the next two years, and possibly sooner. Talk Import AI 458 / 2026 Cosmos HAI Lab Lecture, Oxford May 26, 2026
This significant increase in the automation of coding has been equivalent to dropping many, many more employees into Anthropic, speeding up our overall pace of development. Talk Import AI 458 / 2026 Cosmos HAI Lab Lecture, Oxford May 26, 2026
We might soon be able to build an AI system that may be smart enough to develop its own successor, thus kicking off a process of recursive self-improvement which would utterly transform the economy and the broader world. Talk Import AI 458 / 2026 Cosmos HAI Lab Lecture, Oxford May 26, 2026
When I look at the graph, I feel a sense of vertigo, because I know a little bit about what underlies this graph. Blog Import AI 456: RSI and economic growth May 11, 2026
The surprising thing from my perspective is seeing the feedback across the whole economy, suggesting we might hit an ‘economic singularity’ as a consequence of broad diffusion of automation technologies into the economy. Blog Import AI 456: RSI and economic growth May 11, 2026
This paper points to a future where we get rid of all the software underpinning computers in a traditional sense and just replace it with a gigantic neural network.

If you are relying on anything remotely like ‘automated alignment evals’ against potential superintelligences, I predict that you are rather cooked. Podcast Dwarkesh Podcast: AI researchers debate how close we are to recursive self-improvement Sep 11, 2026
Right now, you don’t get explosive growth in capabilities because you still get bottlenecked enough when you’re trying to do research and engineering. Essay We Must Pace the Frontier September 2026
My first concern is that, since roughly this summer, AI has been advancing drastically faster, driven primarily by AI’s growing ability to build the next generation of AI. Essay The mistake of conflating intelligence and power May 16, 2026
I’m simply pointing out that the way AI systems are currently becoming smarter (by getting trained to be to be really good at specific economically valuable tasks like coding) is not that strongly correlated with power.

It turned out AI was the missing ingredient for a lot of ideas maybe 15 years or 10 years ago. About this quote
