According to Son, this marks the beginning of a shift toward what he calls "superintelligence", a stage where AI systems become significantly smarter than humans and increasingly contribute to the development of their own successors.

Anthropic recently argued that future AI systems could become capable of designing, building and training new AI models with little or no human input. The company believes governments and regulators should begin preparing for that possibility now, even if it may never fully materialise.

Son appears to believe that the process has already started.

"So that's going to happen to all the other major models," Son told CNBC, adding that engineers will eventually no longer be smart enough to design the next generation of AI systems.

"So once that happens, the model generates the next model ... and it's going to be exponentially smarter than all of us. That's a superintelli
