The compute/intelligence curve is not a straight line. It's probably more a curve that saturates, at like 70% of human intelligence. More compute still means more intelligence. But you'll never reach 100% human intelligence. It saturates way below that.

how would you know it converges on human limits, why wouldn't it be able to go beyond, especially if it gets its own world sim sandbox?

		I didn't say that. It converges well below human limits. That's what we see. Thinking it will go beyond human limits is just wishful thinking at this point. There is no reason to believe it.
