A web game and interactive explorer from Paradigm. Bootstrap an AI lab from scratch and see how compute, data, and labor shape the trajectory of AI progress.
We created a web game to demonstrate the economics of AI research and development. You play an AI lab working to bootstrap an artificial superintelligence from scratch, investing labor, compute, and data into R&D until you are able to achieve self-sustaining acceleration. The game is inspired by a recent paper, The Economics of Recursive Self-Improvement, as well as other foundational research papers from economics and computer science. The game is built on the actual economic models from those papers, but is not meant to be a realistic forecast. The models depend heavily on their…
