[ExI] text singularity

[William Flynn Wallace]

We have been shown repeatedly that most of what humans do does not require
intelligence.


Surely you jest.  I have known people who, when asked to raise a hand, did
not know what to do (IQ 40).  Surely you mean IQ above a certain level.  IQ
82 will do for a symphony orchestra member.


It isn’t clear what most people will be for.

*For trying to outwit the machines?  Nah.  Enjoying life.  Creating new
things and ideas.  Having other robots carry out the experiments suggested
by a robot.   Designing new bodies and minds -How would a bot know what we
like?  We have the ideas and they do the work.   bill w*
