Right, but what I wonder is why we would need something that already does what we want without intervention to become even smarter (leading to it possibly becoming all-powerful)? What are the real-world advantages of making it self-aware?
- em3rgent0rdr 10y agoUnassisted learning will unleash great advances in computing.
