    Also, something makes me think that part of the reason for the US companies’ feverish chase to AGI is that they believe it’s their last chance to stay ahead of China

    They believe it is their last chance in everything. They have gone all-in on “we either achieve this or climate destroys the planet”. They believe new uninvented technology that only AGI will create will save the planet.

    They are totally invested in the idea that AGI will be able to improve itself, thus bringing about progressively better super intelligence that will produce technology bordering on magic.
