Not following—where could the ‘low hanging fruit’ possibly be hiding? We have many of “Other attributes conducive to breakthroughs are a …” in our world of 8 billion. The data strongly suggests we are in diminishing returns. What qualities could an AI of Einstein intelligence realistically have that would let it make such progress where no person has. It would seem you would need to appeal to other less well defined qualities such as ‘creativity’ and argue that for some reason the AI would have much more of that. But that seems similar to just arguing that it in fact has > Einstein intelligence.
I’m not attempting to speculate on what might be possible for an AI. I’m saying that there may be much low-hanging fruit potentially accessible to humans, despite there now being many high-IQ researchers. Note that the other attributes I mention are more culturally-influenced than IQ, so it’s possible that they are uncommon now despite there being 8 billion people.
