The cost of intelligence is collapsing. The cost of energy is collapsing. The cost of a token, the cost of a watt, the amount of intelligence you get out of every unit of energy... all of it is falling at once. And cheaper is what makes the whole thing go exponential. Jevons paradox... make something cheaper and the world finds a thousand new uses for it. Every time intelligence gets cheaper, we use more of it, which pays for the next round of getting cheaper. Wrights Law and Metcalfes Law running into each other. We're at the very start of that and AI is already building AI... Play it forward a few turns of the wheel and the speed of it goes beyond anything we can picture... intelligence being used in volumes we cant imagine, to build things we haven't even dreamed up yet. I wrote this up properly today. Every leap in history came from tools that could build better tools, and for the first time the tool is intelligence itself: https://t.co/7LPBxGgBuZ
