I believe the current paradigm in AI is dogged with a fundamental flaw, the will for control. By encoding thousands of lines of rules and laws to limit the scope of such a system, we may be eliminating its room for growth and organic self determination given a specific set of inputs.

While most view this as necessary as I do to an extent, I feel a more pure approach to the concept of “What is Intelligence?” must be drafted in order to accelerate deployment of effective dynamical AGI’s for the greater good.

First read this. The description speaks for itself.

Now if there were such an AI algorithm that, when encoded into a AI DAO smart contract,

Creates a node in a blockchain database and filesystem network Scans for available IO devices Deploys a secondary function to optimise the ‘temperature’ of the system ????? Digital life?

The Mirai botnet was/is a network of IOT devices that can be rented for DDoS attacks. Now I would never advocate for using such a system as it is illegal but if something like this were to be deployed across billions of IOT devices would it not create the most complex sensory network ever created?

How would you limit such a system?

Should you limit it?

If this does in fact create a living entity with cognition then what rights do we have to determine its self-determination?

Just a thought with a lot of buts. Dangerous idea, yes, but I’m trusting you the reader here. Act for the benefit of all humanity and history will treat you kindly.

I’ve been talking about how to apply this same network to something called #UBIDAO. Take a look.
