Sci-fi storyline: A transhuman poplulation links up through a
"nanoneocortex" and
sophisticated wireless technology to a supreme technological being,
that has designed
its own brain architecture, and has unlimited capacities for learning
and intelligence
The God Machine will be a self-organizing sentient being based on
principles
that the "seeders" have layed down for it, including proper ethics.
After acquiring
staggering levels of knowledge, it will work for the benefit of the
human and
transhuman species, and the new "robotic" intelligences, that is, the
new
technointelligenced beings that are not of flesh and bones.
The God Machine (I still don't have a good term for it, any
suggestions?)
will have the best data from all over the world to make its
suggestions for
what is best for the species and its individuals.
If it is done properly, by the right group of people,(how about
Google, Microsoft,
Ray Kurzweil, Marvin Minsky, etc), we may be able to solve many, if
not all,
of the world's most significant problems through advanced technology
applied
with optimal planetary stewardship in mind, basically doing what is
best for the human
genome for survival and proliferation.
The transhumans and their supporters will achieve their goals through
proactive international business and political parties, influencing
governments to bring about positive coevolution of humans,
transhumans, and all life forms for the planet.
Plausible? Dangerous? Ridiculous?
