One of the formative books of my childhood was The Physics of Star Trek, by Lawrence Krauss. Think of it sort of like xkcd’s What If?, except all about physics and getting a little more into the weeds.
So:
Robotics / inverse kinematics. Voice recognition, language models, and speech synthesis. Planning / search. And of course, self-improvement, instrumental convergence, existential risk.
To make this work you’d need to already be pretty well-suited. The Physics of Star Trek was Krauss’ third published book, and he got Stephen Hawking to write the forward.
Idea: The AI of Terminator.
