Superintelligence will be built on Self Improvement.

While trying to solve a problem, SIA doesn't just improve it's abilities by updating it's harness, it updates it's own weights as well.

People vastly underestimate the importance of which company they work at. It's better to have a lower titled role at a rocketship (where you can learn & increasingly take on more scope), than a higher-titled role at a company that's not doing as well.
