For the latter: I assume that having a whole data centre will always be an advantage. I am saying that for a fixed target, like proving the Rieman hypothesis from scratch, the required hardware will shrink.
And, yes, the Rieman hypothesis hasn't been proven yet. So to take your fears into account, replace my example with something they've already done, like constructing a solution to the Navier-Stokes-problem.

There are several orders of magnitude of difference in what in your mind AI will become and what more conservative people believe. You take your view as granted...
- eru 4d agoExponential growth in hardware's capabilities, like we are used to, means that several orders of magnitude are a matter of a relatively short time.
