Abstract

Some technologies exhibit positive feedback loops; the effect of their own progress is to accelerate their own further progress, constant acceleration in other words. Using ever more powerful computational models to design ever more powerful computational models is obviously such a case. Obtaining (and holding) a technologic lead in the presence of a positive feedback loop is inherently different than doing so in a field where persistence—just doggedly slogging it out—is the driving mechanism for progress. Put differently, under constant acceleration the distance between two entities can only increase.
