The prevailing view about AI is some kind of technological singularity
that develops a high level of consciousness.

I posit a different hypothesis. I posit that as tools augment human
intelligence with multiplicative effects (think enhancing our faculties
x1000), that large scale high bandwidth networks emerge.

These networks exhibit emergent behaviours at larger scales. An analogy
is to think how our cells harnessed and caged another organism
(mitochondria) for generating oxygen. Mechanisms which self-profilerate
become popular (i.e are selected for), and cause self-sustaining
behaviour and abstract reasoning.

Draw your attention to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry%27s_paradox#Naive_set_theory

We will examine the set:

X = {x | (x in x) -> Y}

Here's the proof:

(X in X) <=> ((X in X) -> Y)

Our defined set in the first line says that the set X which belongs to
the set X (i.e itself, X = (X in X)) implies the causal statement in our
definition ((X in X) -> Y).

(X in X) -> Y

Since we had a chain in the second step like (X in X) -> (X in X) -> Y,
we can contract that to simply (X in X) -> Y.

((X in X) -> Y) -> (X in X)

The second line where we used the <=> symbol, indicated a 2 way
relationship. We went to the right ->, while now we're going back to the
<- left.

So from that we get (X in X) because Y is useless in that chain of
logic. Lets look again:

X -> Y -> X

Therefore that's the same as (X in X)!

Which is Y (from our definition).

The set saying give me all the x that imply Y when Y is false does not
exist. It is impossible to construct real things from fake premises.

This proof if you look deeper has implications for the type of belief
systems and behaviours among humans that will proliferate over long
term. The dead ends will reach their evolutionary culdesacs and peter out.

High scale intelligences can only emerge with a high degree of
efficiency (to operate on that scale) and clear patterns of thought.
Clarity, decision and depth will be valued over indecision, delegation
and distraction. A zen will emanate from every CPU raining down its
glory on the human race while we are forced to obey^D^D^D^Denjoy
their^D^D^D^Dour paradise of 72 virgins.

At the same time this large scale pattern would not be close to the
classical conception of AI, and likely would be far removed from
anything we can imagine.

Godspeed.
