Empirical Evidence of Accelerating AI
Recent data indicates an exponential increase in the length of autonomous tasks AI can complete. Tasks are reportedly doubling in difficulty every four months, an improvement from the previously noted doubling time of every seven months. This trend is vital because it implies that AI's ability to handle increasingly complex tasks autonomously is accelerating at an unprecedented pace.
A critical observation is that many AI tasks are now reaching saturation points indicative of outperforming human capabilities — particularly in areas like image recognition and code generation. The argument posits that as AI systems become more refined, the matrices of success in these domains will lead to further exponential growth.
