A quoted AI investor says RSI may be near and could absorb enormous compute

- The claim is that frontier labs appear to believe RSI could arrive very soon.
- If that happens, the amount of compute required would be enormous.
- The post frames the next half-year to nine months as potentially more consequential than the last two years of AI capability gains.
