Accelerating Change to Persist Long After AGI

The author largely agrees with the cited perspective: post-AGI, there won't be a "calm after the storm" phase. Instead, we are likely entering an era of continuous, accelerating change.
They add that while this growth won't be infinitely exponential—physical constraints will eventually shape economic growth into an S-curve—the world may still experience drastic, continuous disruption for decades or even over a century. Therefore, the focus shouldn't be on waiting for a "transition to end," but rather on learning how to adapt to a faster pace of change as the new normal.
