Here we see a lot of probability on compounding returns. But the uncertainty is very large, and our range of estimates straddle the key threshold of r=1. So at face value, the software intelligence explosion seems quite plausible — at the very least, it's hard to rule out.
Doubling AI software research input more than doubles software efficiency (research returns parameter r > 1).

if F(L,K) is a production function such that both inputs are necessary for sustained growth, then even if L is increasing due to more simulated AIs, if experimental compute K
Limited compute for experiments would bottleneck AI progress even if AI research labor were fully automated.
