Ex-Google CEO Eric Schmidt says in 5 years, AI systems will be able to write and improve on their own code leading to recursive self-improvement and humans are not ready

Oh yeah, again this singularity crap. LLMs are too dumb for this.

Five years? FIVE? Oh Eric.....

Humans better get ready quick!

Recursive self-improvement is a fascinating concept—AI systems refining and upgrading their own code. But aren't there limits? Constraints like data, hardware, energy, or diminishing returns could cap progress. There must be a ceiling for them to stop before they 'crash into the nebula.'

Literally happening right now.

I think, generally, most people aren’t aware how much AI they’re seeing on a daily basis in social media feeds. Most people (not in the Twitter/X AI bubble) cannot tell the difference between AI and real people anymore

We will never be ready. It just needs to happen, asap.
