Note also that this technology, by it’s definition (‘transformative’, ‘intelligence’) is so valuable it immediately gives whoever has it an absurd economic, military, even cultural advantage.
Hard to compete with a country that can sell exports below your marginal cost, and of maybe knock off products that have better designs than the product they knocked off. (the low cost is from self replicating robots, the reason the knock off design is better is an AI agent modeled the product being used and explored a large number of possible designs until it found a more reliable/cheaper to make one with similar functionality)
Military is because weapons are mostly a quantity thing, and self replicating robots can’t really be beat there.
And cultural—as you have seen, a lot of cool tricks are possible with various generative AIs. Presumably a ‘transformative’ one could do even cooler tricks.
