Google is already adaptive. There is no way they could build a search engine that effective if it weren't. That approach to adaptivity can be applied on a much bigger scale, & will be. _____ On Aug 23, 2012 1:52 PM, Sergio Pissanetzky <[email protected]> wrote: Matt, Perhaps, but it would not be adaptive.

Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 13:55:56 -0400 The safest AI would be one that doesn't want anything. It would have no goals and no motivations, no reward button and no utility to optimize. It would be a vastly intelligent tool, a collection of all the world's knowledge and the computing power to do whatever you want with it. Rather than think for itself, it would be an extension of our own brains; a place to store your memories, communicate with anyone on the planet, and do the work that you would if you knew more and thought faster. It would be collectively owned, controlled by no single person but by everyone that uses it. It would be the AI that we are actually building; the one in front of you that has already surpassed human level intelligence in all but a few domains as it doubles in size every 1.5 years.
