I’m confused about this; Dario’s statement about acceleration in the pace of progress is at first glance contradicted by Anthropic’s own internal benchmark. Seems important regardless of whether pacing happens or not to understand whether Dario is right.
Dario writes "since roughly this summer, AI has been advancing drastically faster, driven primarily by AI’s growing ability to build the next generation of AI."
But as of September 1, the AECI has not been "advancing drastically faster", so what does this mean?
