This is not at all clear to me. It is certainly prossible for programmers to program computer to do tasks better than they can (e.g. play chess) and I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible for self awareness. Indeed it would be rather trivial to give an AGI access to its source code. -- Philip Hunt, <cabala...@googlemail.com> Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
