Remember when people laughed at Sam Altman and the so-called seven-trillion-dollar Stargate Teleportation plan?
They mocked it as sci-fi, as vapor, as billionaire delusion.
Now imagine this: he’s already 20 percent of the way there.
Not to a finished machine—but to the point of no return. The phase where infrastructure, compute, capital, and talent lock into place. The phase where the system no longer needs belief from outsiders, because it begins compounding on its own.
recursion has been here forever. Now it’s bringing AGI and ASI
Think about what that actually means.
Whoever reaches self-improving AI doesn’t just win a market. They don’t just dominate an industry and can build anything. Everyone else becomes irrelevant. Because once recursive self-improvement begins—once intelligence starts redesigning itself—how does anyone else catch up? You don’t. You watch.
At that point, “Stargate Teleportation Portal” stops sounding like a joke and starts sounding like a metaphor:
not just a teleportation device to the stars, but a one-way gate in history—where power, capability, and decision-making pass through, and the rest of the world is left on the outside, arguing about whether it was ever possible at all.
