I'm working on a technology that I think might enable either IA or AI. Basically intelligences manage their own programs and the computational resources allocated to those programs. So I'm looking at doing that with markets. With IA the user acts as feedback to the market about what is good or bad. Ideally it would act as an external brain lobe. More information on my approach is on this blog https://improvingautonomy.wordpress.com/2017/07/25/why-study-resource-allocation/ https://improvingautonomy.wordpress.com/2017/07/25/why-study...

This might be a better link. It explains how we might get to IA. TL;DR It is a mix of machine learning with different parameters and inputs/outputs and language translation into programs with the economy acting as the force to guide this evolving set of programs. https://improvingautonomy.wordpress.com/2017/08/22/a-possible-path-to-intelligence-augmentation/ https://improvingautonomy.wordpress.com/2017/08/22/a-possibl...

  Interesting idea. Instead of thinking of computing as an authoritarian schema, it could be a community schema, using a kanban or currency system to communicate resource needs between units. It's also similar to negotiating memory over commitment in virtualization. VMWare's driver on the VM "inflates a memory bubble" to communicate host memory constraints to all client VMs. This is often done when VMs have allocated 125%-300% of the host's physical RAM, and forces clients to swap more.

    Yep, while people have to worry about the memory/cpu usage of the programs inside a computer, we are probably going to be stuck with just narrow AI. General Intelligence needs the ability to trade off resources between different programs doing different things (these may be learning different things, processing data or doing other computational tasks). Also we get malware because we expect the user to be a good knowledgeable authoritarian manager of a system and never run a bad program and be able to get rid of a bad program when it occurs. This just isn't realistic.
