That which is being fooled is the more neurologically advanced of the two species. And so what I've talked about, somewhat controversially, is what I call Artificial Out-telligence. Where instead of actually having an artificially intelligent species you can imagine a dumb computer program that uses the reward, through let's say genetic algorithms and selection within a computer framework, to increasingly parasitize using better and better lures, fully intelligent humans. | That which is being fooled is the more neurologically advanced of the two species.

And in the case of Artificial Intelligence I don't think we're there yet. But in the case of | And in the case of Artificial Intelligence I don't think we're there yet. But in the case of Artificial Out-telligence, I can't find anything that's missing from the equation. So we have self-modifying code. You have Bitcoin so you could have a reward structure and Blockchains. And there's nothing that I see that keeps us from creating. | ||
Now that’s such a such a strange and quixotic possibility. Now in this framework I don't see an existential risk so that my friends who worry about machine intelligence being a terminal invention for the human species probably don't need to be worried. | Now that’s such a such a strange and quixotic possibility.

But I think that there's a lot of exotica around Artificial Intelligence which hasn't been explored and I think which is much closer to fruition. Perhaps that's good. Maybe it's a warning shot so that we're going to find that we just as we woke up to Bitcoin as digital gold we may wake up to a precursor to artificial general intelligence which alerts us to the fact that we should probably be devoting more energy into this absolutely crazy sounding future problem which no humans have ever encountered. | But I think that there's a lot of exotica around Artificial Intelligence which hasn't been explored and I think which is much closer to fruition.
