I had the realization that variables could come about that wouldn't exist without a super intelligence cracking them open. It's an interesting mind game to think of problems that could occur or change drastically when intelligence and evolutionary time are removed as barriers, especially when whole new non-human variables are discovered within that problem.
I think there are variables that we cannot grasp when AI can reach the point of self-teaching. I think it is a folly to assume that it is possible for humans to control for (theoretically) infinite intelligence explosion. Using this as a starting assumption isn't a good start at all.
I know that you allude to this in 1, 8, and 9. However, I still think it presumes that they could possibly be controlled or at least "worked-around." As intelligence explosion occurs, so do unforeseen variables. And humans as a species still doesn't have a perfect solution for all the variables, especially since correct data isn't always the answer.
For instance, if we look... (read more)
