My guess is that based on what Sam and OpenAI has said about robotics and their views on compute&scaling. The moment we have robotics of that capability, we're probably in a post ASI world to begin with. As in all our scientific discovery as that point is being done by intelligences far smarter than the whole of humanity. I say this because I get the impression that OpenAI thinks you're going to need a very powerful AI to solve the problem of how you go about stuffing a model that requires a server room of bleeding edge GPUs and the power to run it in a robo chastise or a car. I'm reminded of how constrained the size was for Deepmind's Gato because the model had to be able to run in realtime in a robot hand for example.

Anyway, I think this is why Sam said in a past interview he would sound like a crazy person if he started talking about what the world would could be like if we get AI right, harnessing a magnitude of intelligence that supersedes whatever humans could ever hope to achieve with their biological brains means a lot of scientific advances and or problems that isn't hard constrained by physics could be solvable over night.
