Don't hesitate to let me know what you think! Leave a reply!
1) Define "general" intelligence.
2) no, if I think it can advance at any specific arbitrary rate, then that rate is by definition imagined, and therefore not unimaginable.
3) no. Nothing can solve problems without creating problems.
4) yes, yes, no. Nothing is forever
5) define "us". Artificial intelligence we already have, such as it is, has already been the end of that "us" which had existed prior to the computer age.
