    Delphinus Sapiens: human brains in dolphin bodies

    1. Dolphins. Transplant human brains into dolphin bodies. How long before they build printing presses? More generally, what matters more: our hands or our brains? 2. Set. Point. Search. Human power depends on three things: having many possibilities, good actual ideas, and the ability to find good ideas. 3. The Attention Machine. Accelerating search by focusing on what's relevant.

    AGI = Darwin + Turing + Darwin

    What makes something an AGI? What requirements should it meet? 1. Darwin. It should be able to explore many possibilities, via variation and selection. 2. Turing.  It should have the widest set of possibilities and opportunities. It should be able to think anything that is thinkable. Compute anything computable. 3. Darwin. Having found a new and good idea or theory, it should be possible to use it to improve how it searches. It should be able to engage in variation and selection in new ways.
