I think this take misses a major point, that is the question of why returns on investment in physics are diminishing.
In the past centuries it used to be the case that new physical discoveries led to better technologies which in turn enabled new discoveries and so on. This is

In @yak study group recent calls about Claude code, @anurajenp used 2 illuminating metaphors:
a) It has a flywheel effect on doing stuff
b) It feels like loading up a dragster (with config info) and flooring the accelerator
Both suggest a particular interpretation in OODA loop terms: The observe/decide/act (O_ODA)
