Does anyone else remember a short article by Asimov presenting the idea of an intelligence explosion? I read it in the mid-80s in a collection of his essays I checked out from the library (so it wasn’t necessarily recently published); if I remember right and I’m not confabulating, the essay had been written years before for an airline in-flight magazine. If it mentioned I.J. Good’s paper, I don’t recall it.
This was the first I encountered the idea, as a teenager, and obviously it stuck with me.
