that's the thing though, I don't believe superintelligence can possibly work like that. I think it's a logical fallacy to treat superintelligences like hypercomputers. they're constrained by existing on classical computers.
like, as a trivial counterexample, I can speak at 500 wpm. let's say that ChatGPT can generate 500 words per second for a single thread of conversation - I think that's a generous overestimate. now that's a 60x speedup over me, not a 1,000,000,000x like you're talking about. do you honestly believe they they can make ChatGPT run 16.6 million times faster, without changing hardware? do you think ChatGPT will just like, hit an inflection point where it realizes how to refactor its inference code to run 16,666,666x faster?
no, I think that's absurd. you're treating these things like black boxes but they are constrained by computational complexity, die area and the speed of light for Christ's sake.
