Reply to comment by PrivateUser010 in Anthropic's Jack Clark on AI progress by Impressive-Injury-91

AI likely doesn't exhibit this, but it has been advancing faster than Moore's law. The only thing that will exhibit a double exponential is probably quantum computing.

Perhaps because this supposed exponential growth of the AI ​​may need proportional energy or simply a lot of energy.

Even if we assume that, it's not necessarily a problem or suggests that AI progress will slow anytime soon. We can afford to dedicate a lot more energy to AI improvement than we currently are. Recent multimodal models seem to suggest there is plenty of room for efficiency gains yet. We are still far from limitations of energy becoming a primary concern, if it ever does, as AI self-improvement will make its own algorithms more efficient and get better and better at finding outside resources to exploit.
