.@slatestarcodex's answer.
I actually agree with this.
But if making new connections and discoveries is intrinsically an NP-hard problem, then it's also less likely that some super-intelligence will rapidly exhaust the tech tree and start making nanobots.
I still haven't heard a good answer to this question, on or off the podcast.
AI researchers often tell me, "Don't worry bout it, scale solves this."
But what is the rebuttal to someone who argues that this indicates a fundamental limitation?
