Dude, my reference is to ever continuing improvement. As a society we don’t tent to forget what we had last year, which is why the curve does not go negative. At time T+1 the level of technology will be equal or better than at time T. That is all you need to know to realise that any fixed limits will be bypassed, because limits are horizontal lines compared to technical progress, which is a line with a positive slope.

I don’t want this to be true. I have a 6 year old. I want A.I. to help us build a world that is good for her and society. But stupidly stumbling forward as if nothing can go wrong is exactly how we fuck this up, if it’s even possible not to.
