Reply to comment by [deleted] in AGI will not precede Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) - They will arrive simultaneously by __ingeniare__

>By definition, ASI is going to need 8 billion times more compute power than AGI, and the first AGI is going to require a lot of compute power.

This isn't very accurate. Lots of skills and knowledge is shared between many humans so you wouldn't need to multiply the compute power for 1 human by the number of humans on earth. There is also much less useful knowledge or skills in the vast majority of young children when compared to the smartest and most skilled adults.

Most definitions of ASI simply refer to it as intelligence that surpasses the smartest humans on earth. Where are you getting your ASI definition from?

Quality of thought generally wins out against quantity of thought. You don't discover general relativity by having a thousand undergrads poke at equations and lab equipment; you discover general relativity by having one Einstein think deeply about the underlying concepts.
