Now imagine that human with the most advanced self-tracking/monitoring systems imaginable, combined with instrumentation for monitoring all of the imaginable external physical phenomena -- light, sound, speech-to-text, videos being watched, etc., and other people, all recorded in multi-cam HD video and analyzed in real time (motion capture, object detection, movement detection, etc.). Further imagine that this system could systematically modify the environment (light, sound, etc.) while monitoring the human's responses and that of other people and the real world. The system would be compiling a massive realtime multi-yettabyte database while running realtime testing routines in a bank of supercomputers. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black'>Now how long do you think it would take such a system to reverse-engineer human intelligence and function and pass a more sophisticated version of the Turing test based on interacting with humans in RT/RL (real time/real life), initially at say, fly level, then cat level, then working up to human genius level and passing it, outputting advanced versions of itself. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:black'>And is anyone developing something like this, or do I have to take off a few days and develop it myself?
