I find it extremely hard to believe that ASI will still require enormous investments in a post-ASI world. The initial investment? Likely. But there have to be more efficient ways to build intelligence, and ASI will figure it out. It did not take trillions of dollars to produce you and I. | ||

The efficient ways (biotech?) are still likely to require massive investments, maybe not unlike chip fabs that cost billions. And then IP and patents come in. | ||

Maybe in a few decades or so, but medium-term, there seems to be a race of who can built the largest data centers. https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/the-ai-bubble-is-so-big-... | ||
