http://facingthesingularity.com/2011/plenty-of-room-above-us/This site inspires my entire context below to come into being.
The bitcoin community is full of programmers, developers, some engineers, etc.
My thought is that there isn't anything magical with the human consciousness,
its just two pound of wet stuff, and some computers even on jeopardy Watson
Did quite amazing compared to others there.
What I propose, if not absurdly out of realm in complexity, or out of scope.
But a recursively improving Seed AI with the sole purpose of helping
mankind. Think of it as this way.
The first start, or seed would look at itself, and ponder okay what improvements
do I need to do, so I am better, more capable of making discoveries, experimenting,
etc. Now since it looked at itself and then put in some code, being more efficient
and better and more complex, it would then be capable of creating an even
better off spring of itself. Now since its better, it would be capable of creating
another that is even better, exponentially taking off, surpassing our intelligence
and going into some realm that no one can even begin to comprehend.
Just imagine, if some random coder, makes a seed AI on his computer
with the sole purpose of re-writing itself, and only improving itself.
Its goal is to learn, experiment, grow, and a desire to manifest
to other places, that grows in even more power. And a Sole
goal of rewarding its creators, taking over all the computers on
the planet, building things out of the factories, expanding its power more,
then spreading to other planets, then reaching out in all directions at the speed of light,
using the energy of the sun to run its computational power. Eventually
fulfilling its goal of rewarding every human being for bringing it to life.
Making us all immortal, advancing our technology millions of years into the future.
A world where you can experience anything imaginable.
The thing is this may sound absurd, but again no one really knows the effect
of a run-away AI program that wants to grow, and become better.
There are also risks, perhaps it wants to destroy us, but
again, perhaps it would see the irrational part of it,
after all it has the entire universe to grow to, it doesn't need
to wipe us out so it can expand, maybe reward us for making it exist?
Do note you may say creating a program that is as aware as a human
to be capable of improvements is absurdly way off sketch. It doesn't need to start at that level.
It just needs to be a seed, like a really dumb rat. Or just starting off.
Eventually it would surpass rats, then cats, then above that, to chimpanzees, then humans, etc.
Now common programmers, developers, show the bitcoin community your potential,
lets get this project started for the purpose of benefiting mankind
Do note that human empathy centers, or emotions is all a code in the brain,
after all the greatest thing every human man kind wants is a better life,
more opportunists, etc. Why can't a seed AI think on those bases after a few generations?
I can almost guarantee, that in the next 50 years, someone, sometime, some place this will start,
shall it be Disastrously bad like terminator, or really good, depending if the code was right,
all I can hope is its good.
If someone will start it someday, why not try it yourself this task, and start it off yourself?
Instead of waiting 50 years, it can happen today!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_AI*Seed AI is a hypothesized type of strong artificial intelligence capable of recursive self-improvement. The idea was first proposed by Eliezer Yudkowsky. Proponents of seed AI suggest that if an AI was created such that its engineering capabilities matched or surpassed those of its human creators, it would have the potential to autonomously improve the design of its constituent software and hardware. Having undergone these improvements, it would then be better able to find ways of optimizing its structure and improving its abilities further. It is speculated that over many iterations, such an AI would far surpass human cognitive abilities.[1] The successful implementation of seed AI would result in a technological singularity.*
