How so? My point isn’t that you don’t see fast growth in the ability of a particular technology to create revenue, it’s that if that doesn’t happen it’s probably because the technology isn’t profitable and not because it’s blocked by practical or regulatory constraints.
Of course the world is such that even the most primitive technology likely has new ways it could be used to create a lot of revenue and that’s what entrepreneurs do, so there’s always some room for “nobody has thought of the idea” or “the right group of people to make it happen didn’t get together” or some other stumbling block.
My point is that in Paul-verse, AI systems that are capable of generating a doubling of gross world product in short order wouldn’t be impeded seriously by regulatory constraints, and if GWP is not doubling that points to a problem with either the AI system or our ability to conceive of profitable uses for it rather than regulatory constraints slowing growth down.
