I suspect that these developments look a bit less surprising if you’ve been trying to forecast progress here, and so might be at least partially priced in. Anyhow, the forecast you linked to shows >10% likelihood before spring 2025, three years from now. That’s extraordinarily aggressive compared to (implied) conventional wisdom, and probably a little more aggressive than I’d be as an EA AI prof with an interest in language models and scaling laws.

Thanks, yeah now that I look closer Metaculus shows a 25% cumulative probability before April 2029, which is not too far off from OP’s 30% claim.
