Hi all,
Spurred on by recent discussions & some conversations w/ my wife, I've had
some new thoughts on our familiar topics (Friendly AI, etc.).
See this document,
"Encouraging a Positive Transcension via Incrementally Self-Improving,
Theorem-Proving-Based AI"
http://www.realai.net/ITSSIM.pdf
if you're curious.
I don't claim to have solved the uber-problem of Friendly AI (yet), but the
ideas in this paper indicate the sort of direction that I think is most
likely to be useful in terms of moving toward a solution.
This, like each of my previous essays on Friendly AI related topics (most
linked to via www.goertzel.org/dynapsyc/ , only tells part of the story as I
see it. After I finish the five other books in my queue I'll probably
weave all these essays together with some other futurist material I have
lying around, in to a book on "Encouraging a Positive Transcension." But
that may take a while unless my schedule frees up a lot, as I have a lot of
things to do besides write books these days ;)
