Note: scaling maximalism hypothesis -> "that AGI might arise from larger scale without fundamental new innovation"

Reminds me of that concept Steven Wolfram introduced me to called computational irreducibility

A low hanging fruit for A.I. to remove is to debunk the received wisdom of economic sophistry holding back the feelers to the next step change.

I’ll be honest, I have no idea what you’re trying to say here. Care to elaborate?
