A stronger AI may stop evaluating startup ideas and start acting them out

The post argues that sufficiently strong AI would not merely evaluate human startup ideas; it would execute them.
- If AI becomes good enough to allocate capital, it may also be good enough to act directly.
- The next experiment, the author says, is an AI that has its own startup ideas and carries them out through human agents.
- In the example given, an AI interested in drug discovery could outsource work to a human lab if cloud or robot labs do not yet exist, and potentially create the needed lab infrastructure in the process.
It is both an AGI forecast and a business-process thought experiment about how autonomous systems might interact with the real world before full robotics catches up.
