So while, as an architect, this is a very compelling thing to witness, this creative intelligence, I also want to keep myself in check.
If we take a look back at the history of how
intelligence
has been viewed, one seminal example has been Edsger Dijkstra's famous quote that "the question of whether a machine can think is about as interesting as the question of whether a submarine can swim."
And so, several years ago, I undertook a program to try to understand the fundamental physical mechanisms underlying
intelligence.
Pretend that you're an alien race that doesn't know anything about Earth biology or Earth neuroscience or Earth intelligence, but you have amazing telescopes and you're able to watch the Earth, and you have amazingly long lives, so you're able to watch the Earth over millions, even billions of years.
But if you're an alien race who doesn't know any of this, doesn't have any concept of Earth intelligence, you'd be forced to put together a physical theory that explains how, up until a certain point in time, asteroids that would demolish the surface of a planet mysteriously stop doing that.
And so I claim that this is the same question as understanding the physical nature of
intelligence.
So in this program that I undertook several years ago, I looked at a variety of different threads across science, across a variety of disciplines, that were pointing, I think, towards a single, underlying mechanism for
intelligence.
In cosmology, for example, there have been a variety of different threads of evidence that our universe appears to be finely tuned for the development of intelligence, and, in particular, for the development of universal states that maximize the diversity of possible futures.
And so, taking all of these different threads and putting them together, I asked, starting several years ago, is there an underlying mechanism for
intelligence
that we can factor out of all of these different threads?
Is there a single equation for
intelligence?
So what you're seeing here is a statement of correspondence that
intelligence
is a force, F, that acts so as to maximize future freedom of action.
In short,
intelligence
doesn't like to get trapped.
Does it predict human-level
intelligence?
Does it predict artificial
intelligence?
But what if that tentative cosmological connection between entropy and
intelligence
hints at a deeper relationship?
Amazingly, Entropica was able to pass multiple animal
intelligence
tests, play human games, and even earn money trading stocks, all without being instructed to do so.
This same network orchestration ability also has applications in health care, energy, and
intelligence.
Going back to the beginning of the usage of the term robot, the play "RUR," there was always a concept that if we developed machine intelligence, there would be a cybernetic revolt.
It's quite the opposite, that the urge to take control of all possible futures is a more fundamental principle than that of intelligence, that general
intelligence
may in fact emerge directly from this sort of control-grabbing, rather than vice versa.
My equivalent of that statement to pass on to descendants to help them build artificial intelligences or to help them understand human intelligence, is the following:
Intelligence
should be viewed as a physical process that tries to maximize future freedom of action and avoid constraints in its own future.
Ten thousand years ago, we were as we are today: a modern, dreaming
intelligence
unlike anything seen before.
What I was trying to do with tuning these hormones and neurotransmitters and so forth was to try to get my
intelligence
back after my illness and surgery, my creative thought, my idea flow.
Digital ID scanners have replaced manual checks, expediting the boarding process, and artificial
intelligence
is deployed across the network to optimize travel routes.
Artificial
intelligence
is being used to predict crime and terrorism in Xinjiang province, where the Muslim minority is already under constant surveillance.
Adam Smith: Let us suppose that the great empire of China was suddenly swallowed up by an earthquake, and let us consider how a man of humanity in Europe would react on receiving
intelligence
of this dreadful calamity.
ES: You know, when I was sitting in Hawaii, and the years before, when I was working in the
intelligence
community, I saw a lot of things that had disturbed me.
We do a lot of good things in the
intelligence
community, things that need to be done, and things that help everyone.
And out of all the solutions that I could come up with, out of going to Congress, when there were no laws, there were no legal protections for a private employee, a contractor in
intelligence
like myself, there was a risk that I would be buried along with the information and the public would never find out.
What that means to an actual NSA analyst, someone like me who was working as an
intelligence
analyst targeting, Chinese cyber-hackers, things like that, in Hawaii, is the provenance of that data is directly from their servers.
The reason this matters is today, if you go to look at a copy of "1984" on Amazon.com, the NSA can see a record of that, the Russian
intelligence
service can see a record of that, the Chinese service can see a record of that, the French service, the German service, the services of Andorra.
