Researchers have mathematically demonstrated that artificial intelligence cannot achieve superintelligence through recursive self-improvement. Instead of advancing towards artificial general intelligence, AI models are predicted to experience 'model collapse,' a phenomenon where they gradually lose their grasp on reality. This mathematical proof suggests that such self-improvement is not merely difficult but fundamentally impossible. AI
