I am jealous. I wish I had so much confidence in my speech that investors gave me billions on the promise of literally nothing
lemming investors be like:
What exactly qualifies as 'super intelligence' and what could it conceivably do that differentiates it from current AI? Sounds like another big ol' bucket of bullshit to me.
- Just a couple more GPUs bro, I’m sure it’s around the corner
- Oh, that’s easy. It just needs to be worth more than 100 billion dollars, which is the value threshold for regular artificial general intelligence.
- what exactly qualifies as super intelligence?
  Oy. This debate again?
MIRI outputs stealth science in the same way that United Aircraft Company makes Su-75. it can be only detected by careful analysis of their spending
- And like the Su-75, it's thoroughly unfit for purpose and exists to hype up the industry rather than actually serve a valuable role.
