Seed AI is a hypothesized type of strong artificial intelligence capable of recursive self-improvement. Seed AI would need to be able to redesign and enhance parts of its own programs in such a way that the improved version is capable of further improvements impossible or impractical to have been made by earlier versions. No such AI currently exists, but researchers are working to make seed AI a reality. Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. ...
It has been suggested that Seed AI be merged into this article or section. ...
In the philosophy of artificial intelligence, strong AI is the supposition that some forms of artificial intelligence can truly reason and solve problems; strong AI supposes that it is possible for machines to become sapient, or self-aware, but may or may not exhibit human-like thought processes. ...
Modern compilers often self-optimize for efficiency and raw speed, but this is not sufficient for the sort of open-ended recursive self-enhancement needed to create advanced, smarter-than-human intelligence, as a true seed AI would need to be able to do. Existing program optimizers can examine their own code and rewrite themselves for greater efficiency, but they cannot do so recursively. The improved version of a given compiler may compile faster, but it cannot compile better. That is, an optimized version of a compiler will never spot new optimization tricks that earlier versions failed to see, will never innovate new ways of improving its own program, etc. Seed AI must be able to understand the purpose behind the various elements of its design, and design entirely new modules that will make it genuinely more intelligent. True seed AI will probably require a vast amount of initial general intelligence, beyond that of any AI created so far. This article is about the computing term. ...
Creating seed AI is the goal of several organizations. The Singularity Institute for Artificial Intelligence is the most prominent of those explicitly working to create seed AI. Others include the Artificial General Intelligence Research Institute, creator of the Novamente AI engine, and Adaptive Artificial Intelligence Incorporated. The Singularity Institute for Artificial Intelligence is a non-profit organization with the goal of developing a theory of Friendly artificial intelligence and implementing that theory as a software system. ...
Founded in 2001, the Artificial General Intelligence Research Institutes (AGIRI) mission is to foster the creation of powerful and ethically positive Artificial General Intelligence. ...
Singularitarians believe seed AI is the technology most likely to bring about a technological singularity. Singularitarianism is a moral philosophy based upon the belief that a technological singularity — the technological creation of smarter-than-human intelligence — is possible, and advocating deliberate action to bring it into effect and ensure its safety. ...
When plotted on a logarithmic graph, 15 separate lists of paradigm shifts for key events in human history show an exponential trend. ...
