I don’t think most AI researchers think of “improving its source code” as one of the benchmarks in an AI research program. Whether or not you think it is, asking them to identify a benchmark that they’ve actually thought about (I really like Nilson’s 80% of human jobs, especially since it jives well with a Hansonian singularity) seems more likely to get an informative response.
