Argues that every serious lab has implemented Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI). OpenAI has an "AGI Intern" scalable in weeks. Kimi and GLM are doing RSI. Deepseek reportedly has an Opus-level model processing trillions of tokens daily for autoresearch, soon reaching Mythos-Preview levels.
The discussion questions how leaders like Dario Amodei and Sam Altman will decide human fate, noting that human participation doesn't preclude superintelligence and that parallelization is already mastered.
