The Fatal AGI Hardware Gap

Restricting computer hardware has been proposed as a solution to preventing the dangers of building superintelligent AI. For example, MIRI suggests restricting hardware fabricated on 28 nanometer process node processes or smaller or hardware with 15,840 TFLOP/s or greater computing capacity [1] There is a catch with restricting hardware however, that I have not seen discussed elsewhere. Essentially, there is a minimum level of hardware required to create an AGI which we can call mjx-container[jax="CHTML"] { line-height: 0; } mjx-container [space="1"] { margin-left: .111em; } mjx-container [space="2"] { margin-left: .167em; } mjx-container [space="3"] { margin-left: .222em; } mjx-container [space="4"] { margin-left: .278em; } mjx-container [space="5"] { margin-left: .333em; } mjx-container [rspace="1"] { margin-right: .111em; } mjx-container [rspace="2"] { margin-right: .167em; } mjx-container [rspace="3"] { margin-right: .222em; } mjx-container [rspace="4"] { margin-right: .278em; } mjx-container [rspace="5"] { margin-right: .333em; } mjx-container [size="s"] { font-size: 70.7%; } mjx-container [size="ss"] { font-size: 50%; } mjx-container [size="Tn"] { font-size: 60%; } mjx-container [size="sm"] { font-size: 85%; } mjx-container [size="lg"] { font-size: 120%; } mjx-container [size="Lg"] { font-size: 144%; } mjx-container [size="LG"] { font-size: 173%; } mjx-container [size="hg"] { font-size: 207%; } mjx-container [size="HG"] { font-size: 249%; } mjx-container [width="full"] { width: 100%; } mjx-box { display: inline-block; } mjx-block { display: block; } mjx-itable { display: inline-table; } mjx-row { display: table-row; } mjx-row > * { display: table-cell; } mjx-mtext { display: inline-block; } mjx-mstyle { display: inline-block; } mjx-merror { display: inline-block; color: red; background-color: yellow; } mjx-mphantom { visibility: hidden; } _::-webkit-full-page-media, _:future, :root mjx-container { will-change: opacity; } mjx-math { display: inline-block; text-
