Part 5/9:
Despite these philosophical setbacks, enthusiasts of AI warn of an eventual "singularity." This concept describes a point at which machine intelligence surpasses human intelligence, leading to potentially uncontrollable and exponential growth in AI capabilities. The reasoning follows a recursive formula suggesting that as AI evolves, it will create even smarter iterations of itself—like a perpetual motion machine of intelligence. Yet, current advancements show that potential progress in AI enhancement trends more logarithmically than exponentially.
