Correct Matt, we need AGIs, nanotechnologies, data. Self-improvement isn't the key. Data-recursion is. (although you can get better at doing it)
What makes you so sure physics doesn't have an exponential singularity curve for approx. Earth? Nanobots will solve the data need, the computing need, and the biological experiment need, immediately! Full data-recursion. Yes intelligence depends on data size and compute/brain size, including experiments. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T94ee05730c7d4074-M668b048ea7db1bfb18507c33 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
