Alex Wissner-Gross says existing compute and algorithms could sustain the path to superintelligenceMachine translation

AI introduction

In an interview, Alex Wissner-Gross said AI has reached what he calls “superintelligence escape velocity.” He argued that even if construction of all new data centers stopped tomorrow, existing compute and algorithmic insight would keep AI on a path to superintelligence. This is his assessment, not an established technical finding.

Physicist, computer scientist Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross (@alexwg): AI has reached “superintelligence escape velocity,” so even halting every new data center tomorrow would not stop the path to superintelligence. "We're at super intelligence escape velocity at this point and stop all data center construction. Yes, it would be painful, but yes, I I think we have enough algorithmic insight with combined with the compute that's already available." ---- Full video on "Peter H.
