Of your message, this part is the most peculiar. Brute force is all that
we have.
We might be talking at cross purposes...
I didn't intend to suggest that there was a brute-force and a non brute
force way to duplicate evolution, with the brute force method being
infeasible .... I was just trying to say that it would be such a
gigantic project that I do not think it feasible.
That's a bit of a judgment call, I guess, but since I think there are
much more viable alternatives, I don't feel pressed to get a more
accurate handle on just how difficult it would be.
If anyone were to throw that quantity of resources at the AGI problem
(recruiting all of the planet), heck, I could get it done in about 3
years. ;-)
