Executive summary: Super-human AI is relatively easy to achieve compared to other futuristic technologies like brain emulation or life extension, which has important implications for how society should prepare for human-AI coexistence.

Key points:

  1. Super-human AI is achievable because human intelligence operates on minimal energy/matter, wasn't optimized for modern tasks, and evolved inefficiently.
  2. Main potential obstacles to super-human AI: intelligence-obedience tradeoff, resource constraints, hardware limitations, societal collapse.
  3. Other futuristic technologies (brain emulation, radical life extension, space colonization) face much harder physical constraints and may be impossible.
  4. Society needs to prepare for extended period where humans coexist with super-human AI before other technological advances materialize.
  5. Cultural and political changes (like universal basic income) will be crucial for harmonious human-AI coexistence and preventing social discord.
