Reverse Jaggedness and Universal Ajaggedness

The post introduces the concepts of 'reverse jaggedness' and 'universal jaggedness' in AI development, suggesting that AI capabilities can be viewed as a circle relative to human abilities, with the AI's capabilities extending beyond human limits. It humorously proposes that if AI has a capability level of 4.0 compared to a human's 1.0, from the AI's perspective, human capabilities would appear as 0.25. The author acknowledges potential issues with this model but finds it an interesting thought experiment.
