If I didn't work on AGI, I'd work: 1) In the computer industry, making computers faster, waste less energy, smaller, and mass manufacturable using replicators. General Machine Tools, sensors, motors, energy production. If you don't want to make the algorithm/AGI more intelligent, you can just train it on more data to improve accuracy. And if you don't have more data, you can just throw more compute at it! Why? Better AI/ more data both control Attention during "searching" for answers. You can, stumble upon a cure for cancer, if you try every single possible drug, pill, or device (ex. nanobot), brute-force style. It's slower, but if your computer is fast or runs parallel, then you can more-so skip the "AI/more data".
2) Cryonics, drugs, reversing ageing. Cryonics is most interesting, because it already works on humans preserving [most] information and works very well on frogs and spiders that have evolved and have natural antifreeze. It's up for debate whether that lowest level of information lost in the brain is critical, but like said, [most] information is preserved! Fascinating domain. Evolution is all about Generators. Any system (a rock, fridge, human, Earth) transforms itself into its future self. Its current state/ context decides it future self. This is Computation. Both DNA an brains model/compress tons of data/patterns using very little storage. Through mutations/brainstorming, new DNA and new ideas/models are created. Today evolution moves fast because so many brains are communicating using better iphones etc etc. Anything related to computers, rules. TVs, speakers, games, phones, etc. It is the AI on the computer that can store the past and make futures. It's searching. Then, once we reach "utopia", I can finally make the greatest video games etc I have in mind. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T00500442acbcb286-M92ab70591a64ea0a71045a4a Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
