- Muse is one of the most important products we’ve built for the era of personal superintelligence.Unverified
- If you are relying on anything remotely like ‘automated alignment evals’ against potential superintelligences, I predict that you are rather cooked.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- That class of technology has never existed before, and yet I believe this could happen within the next two years, and possibly sooner.

- 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.
- 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.
- We’re excited to form a long-term partnership with AMD to deploy efficient inference compute and deliver personal superintelligence...
- This feedback loop is gathering steam month by month, and may be only 1–2 years away from a point where the current generation of AI autonomously builds the next.
- Number three, I think it would be really materially helpful if the power of the most powerful superintelligence was somehow capped because it would address a lot of these concerns.
- Creating superintelligence is one thing; but creating provable, robust containment and alignment alongside it is the urgent challenge facing humanity in the 21st century.

- It may seem absurd to have to declare it, but HSI is a vision to ensure humanity remains at the top of the food chain.
- We are not building an ill-defined and ethereal superintelligence; we are building a practical technology explicitly designed only to serve humanity.
- With the arrival of thinking and reasoning models, we’ve crossed an inflection point on the journey towards superintelligence.
- Every quote from Mustafa Suleyman
- Meta Superintelligence Labs is off to a great start and we continue to lead the industry in AI glasses. If we deliver even a fraction of the opportunity ahead, then the next few years will be the most exciting period in our history.
- I do, but it’s business as usual because we’re in an intelligence explosion already and have been for decades.
- I do think succession to digital intelligence or augmented humans is inevitable.

- The rest of this decade seems likely to be the decisive period for determining the path this technology will take, and whether superintelligence will be a tool for personal empowerment or a force focused on replacing large swaths of society.

- Over the last few months we have begun to see glimpses of our AI systems improving themselves. The improvement is slow for now, but undeniable. Developing superintelligence is now in sight.
- This is distinct from others in the industry who believe superintelligence should be directed centrally towards automating all valuable work, and then humanity will live on a dole of its output.
- Every quote from Mark Zuckerberg
- I'm excited to build personal superintelligence for everyone in the world.
- Of course this isn’t the same thing as an AI system completely autonomously updating its own code, but nevertheless this is a larval version of recursive self-improvement.

- OpenAI is a lot of things now, but before anything else, we are a superintelligence research company.
- We are past the event horizon; the takeoff has started. Humanity is close to building digital superintelligence, and at least so far it’s much less weird than it seems like it should be.
- This is how the singularity goes: wonders become routine, and then table stakes.
- We do not know how far beyond human-level intelligence we can go, but we are about to find out.
- Every quote from Sam Altman
- I think it may take up to 20 years, I’d say probably within the next 20 years they get smarter than us.
- So the crucial turning point is mid-2027, when they’ve basically fully automated the AI R&D process and they’ve got this corporation within a corporation, the army of geniuses that are autonomously doing all this research and they’re continually being trained to improve their skills, blah, blah, blah.
- Trying to predict how superhuman AI in 2027 would go is like trying to predict how World War 3 in 2027 would go, except that it’s an even larger departure from past case studies.

- Superintelligent tools could massively accelerate scientific discovery and innovation well beyond what we are capable of doing on our own, and in turn massively increase abundance and prosperity.
- ASI will be the culmination of a network of AGI models stimulating each other to rapidly accelerate their evolution.

- I am more energized than ever because I have realized our ultimate mission: the evolution of humanity.
- My view is that ASI will be ten thousand times more intelligent than humans and realized in about ten years. The realization of ASI, which will far surpass human wisdom, will mark a turning point in human history.
- One day, ASI-powered smart robots will perform all kinds of physical tasks on our behalf, including manufacturing, transportation, construction, and housework.
- Every quote from Masayoshi Son
- By 28/29 the intelligence explosion will be underway; by 2030, we will have summoned superintelligence, in all its power and might.

- By the early 2030s, the entirety of the US arsenal (like it or not, the bedrock of global peace and security) will probably be obsolete.
- Ultimately, my main claim here is descriptive: whether we like it or not, superintelligence won’t look like an SF startup, and in some way will be primarily in the domain of national security.
- Every quote from Leopold Aschenbrenner
- Hundreds of millions of AGIs could automate AI research, compressing a decade of algorithmic progress (5+ OOMs) into ≤1 year.
