And so you want techniques which leverage the latter.

And once we have AGI, we'll have researchers which scale linearly with compute, right?

So we'll have this avalanche of millions of AI researchers and their stock will be growing as fast as compute.

And so maybe this will mean that it is rational or it will make sense to have

them doing good old fashioned AI and doing these artisanal solutions.

Does that, as a vision of what happens after AGI in terms of how AI research will evolve, I wonder if that's still compatible with a better lesson.

Well, how did we get to this AGI?

So suppose it started with general methods, but now we've got the AGI.

And now we want to go... But we're done.

Hmm?

We're done.

Interesting.

You don't think that there's anything above AGI?

Well, I'm using it to get superhuman levels of intelligence or competence at different tasks.

I guess there's different gradations of you.

So maybe one way to motivate this is AlphaGo is superhuman.

It beat any Go player.

AlphaZero would beat AlphaGo every single time.

So there's ways to get more superhuman than even superhuman.

And it was a different architecture.
