Because that billion dollars gets you the R&D to know how to do it?

The original point was that an “AI” might become so advanced that it would be able to describe how to create a brain on a chip. This is flawed for two main reasons.

1. The models we have today aren’t able to do this. We are able to model existing patterns fairly well but making new discoveries is still out of reach.

2. Any company capable of creating a model which had singularity-like properties would discover them first, simply by virtue of the fact that they have first access. Then they would use their superior resources to write the algorithm and train the next-gen model before you even procured your first H100.
