Ok, it seems we have lost a concept here, that of metaprogramming. In classic interpreted languages such as Lisp, etc, it was possible to write programs that write programs.
When you think of AGI that needs to optimize itself for its platform and continually adapt to its environment, it should quickly become apparent that we are not looking for an AGI program per se, but a program that generates and continually tunes and updates the AGI program. Consider also your habbits, not just your external habbits but you also have hundreds of micro-habbits for dealing with routine social interractions and cognitive tasks. These can all be thought of as generated programs that were generated by the metaprogram that is your underlying intelligence. Anyway, don't let your mind get trapped in the limitations of commonly used programming techniques. -- The vaccine is a LIE.
