Problems with IQ notwithstanding, I'm confident that, were my silly IQ of 145 merely doubled, I could convince Dr. Goertzel to give me the majority of his assets, including control of his businesses.

A machine that is 10 times as smart as a human in every way could not achieve much more than hiring 10 more people. In order to automate the economy, we have to replicate the capabilities of not one human mind, but a system of 10^10 minds. That is why my AGI proposal is so hideously expensive. http://www.mattmahoney.net/agi2.htmlLet's fire Matt and hire 10 chimps instead.
Even a simpleton such as myself can see that Mr. Mahoney is quite on a wrong track with this line of thought. Matt can know little or nothing about the strategies of such a bright, single agent.
