AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: a salesman pitches applauding finance ministers a '2030: 2×?' growth chart while the soaring arrow turns out to be the telescoping neck of a gigantic self-upgrading robot bursting through the ceiling.
Anthropic's Jack Clark told finance ministers AI could double the US economy by 2030 — a $44 trillion pitch — while expecting full recursive self-improvement by 2027.Zimbo for AI News Page
