I enjoyed that rant. You're reading a lot of good people. Two things -- we don't need to focus on the A in AI -- we can have a collaborative human/computer intelligence. The important thing is that it is a Benign Intelligence. Also speed, is not that important though perhaps getting there first might matter. I will follow you and interact in the future.
Also, I believe small teams -- similar to hunting parties in paleo times -- are effectively a super-intelligent entity that most of us have lost. Bands, start up companies and sports teams retain some of that power.
Human teams also offer a path to the future for monitored, insured, reputable psychopaths to play a part and not need to be the enemy.
@brindleswan cool, i'm glad you liked it. yes, it's always about teamwork that makes the dreamwork. You nailed it when you mentioned Benign - Ethics is going to be center stage around the future we all create...
Did you watch the fastest human being, Bolt, win his 3rd Olympic Gold ? pretty awesome stuff.
We'll have to discuss "speed" another time - really appreciate your comments here. thanks.
Benign Intelligence,
