It doesn’t make as much sense without the context of showing the parochial human picture first, and I’m worried that without that context it’ll just come across as hyperbole. “The AI will be thiiiiiiiiiiis much smarter than Einstein!!!” It also suggests too strong a connection between recursive self-improvement and a specific level of intelligence.
Like. The big problem in explaining intelligence explosions is not explaining the process—in my experience, people grasp the process very intuitively from even my unclear explanations. The big problem is communicating the end result: recursive self-improvement takes AI off the far end of the human scale of intelligence. (The process might only be disputed as a way to reject the end result.) This image does a lot of that work right away.
Animated GIFs look unprofessional.
That is a problem. What do ya’ll think of the new image?

Where’s EY?
(More seriously: that image looks much nicer)
