I believe that AI may be among the most transformative technological development in all of human history. It is plausible that over the next 10 years AI will automate all human knowledge work---jobs that can be done remotely on a computer. This would displace around 20% of the global workforce creating simultaneously an economic boom and extreme political turmoil. These economic events will be overshadowed by an intense arms race between the United States and the People's Republic of China to integrate the now superintelligent AI into every layer of each power's military supply chain. Every fighter jet, missile system, and sensor array will be under a furious optimisation regime by an army of AIs, and there will be considerable pressure from the two sides to win the race by any available means.

The most consequential human job to automate, and perhaps the first that will be automated, is the job of the AI researcher. If this is acheived then the result will be an Artificial Intelligence that can recursively improve itself. There will be huge pressure to do this in an arms race scenario, despite the extreme dangers of a self improving superintelligence that is impossible to understand or control. Even if the technical problem of aligning the superintelligent AI to some particular set of values is achieved, the current political reality is that the extraordinary power of determining the values of the AI will be in the hands of either the Chinese President, the US president, or a CEO in the Bay Area.

Though there are extreme dangers, a properly aligned superintelligence would create enormous improvements to health, technology, and human flourishing that we can scarcely imagine. Hence, I believe we should advance AI as much as possible under a program of international cooperation. I believe we need

- An international treaty to significantly limit the proliferation of AI with military capabilities, which must have commitments from the US and China, who are the current leaders in AI capabilities. The alternative is an arms race to superintelligence that neither side can control, which could provoke a preemptive war.

Large Language Models have matched or exceeded human expert performance on economically valuable multi-hour tasks (GDPval), with task time horizons doubling every 7 months since 2019 (METR). The models have won gold medals in the mathematics, physics, and astrophysics olympiads (Deepmind, OpenAI) and have started solving conjectures encountered in research (Godel Test). Though very impressive, these competition problems and conjectures are self-contained `small world' (Sutton, Big World hypothesis) problems that can be completed in a few hours, in contrast to a full research program that could span months or years, involves selecting research questions, filtering information from millions of books and papers, and embedding the results into a coherent narrative.

To assess the capabilities of AI on real research tasks we have built an agent that can autonously write entire pure and applied mathematics research papers, including coming up with its own research question. Our goal is to refine the agent further, and have its scientific output reviewed by domain experts across a variety of fields. This is an ongoing research project so that as the models improve we can measure the improvements of their scientific output.
