What is the "current pace". Last year? Last 5 years? Last 20 years?

If you mean the last year, is that pace maintainable?

That is the question, though I'd turn it around on you - over the course of human history, the speed of progress has been ever-increasing. As AI develops, it is itself a new tool that should increase the speed of progress. Shouldn't our base case be the assumption that progress will speed up, rather than to question whether it's maintainable?
