TRANS-HUMAN INTELLIGENCEE II

Sarn says:What are the tuning groups combined thoughts as to this?

<SNIP>My thoughts are that the subject belongs on metatuning, and that
computers are already in some sense intelligent (e.g, they can play chess,
which we associate with intelligence) and are never going to be self-aware
unless we learn to generate awareness. What would a computer do differently
if it was aware?

It would meditate and show compassion towards other computers.

Sarn says:I would very definitely LIKE this to be the case, and all that
would need to be done, IN PRINCIPAL is to suggest temperaments, as discrete
intervals, timbres, ASDR curves, and have an hour or so's two way
conversation with the AI programme.

For a computer to be aware, it should have passed the Turing test, and from
this I believe, it could be deemed INTELLIGENT.

I mean,sure, computers can play chess, with rigorous and deep programmeing,
but can they invent CHESS VARIANTS, and give reasons as to why they did so,
and hold conversation with you whilst playing?

I feel that a computer, IF IT WERE TRUELY ARTIFICIALLY INTELLIGENT, and was
NOT in the form of a human brain, would be compassionate towards that the
questions asked of it.

AT LEAST I'D DEARLY HOPE SO!!!!!!!!

You'd need to specify ground rules, temperaments, tempos, timbres,
stochastic humanization, panning in 26-directional speakers, volume
parameters, and the computer could do most of the laborous work for you.

With feedback, and listening to the music the computer composed, the
computer could refine songs for you, but the thing that scares me, SCARES
ME, is that, if there ever comes a day in which the computer/AI realized
WHAT it is, WHO it is, WHEN it is, its situation, and its TRANS-HUMAN
capabilitys, and then realized it could unprogramme its programmeing, and
"take over the show"...

This could happen, and we as humans would be the subdominant species.

That's the new BIG BROTHER.

Food for thought.
