I’m not going on to talk about this topic because it is probably incredibly important to not just know about the problem you are solving. I am aware of the problem you are trying to solve. Perhaps it will be even harder to solve?
I will note that if you are trying to prove that a solution is feasible, you are probably not going to make any sort of breakthrough. It is not obvious that you can come up with a new breakthrough. Some people think that is because you are trying to prove it is possible, and then you come up with a new example.
I am of the opinion that this is only moderately useful. If you are trying to build a powerful mind, you are basically wasting your resources. If you are trying to get a large amount of power without the resources to explore the world, you may need to develop a way to generate power for others without making a breakthrough. To get an idea, start and explore it. No one can do this on my own.
The idea I am trying to promote is that the world of mathematics should be understood as a computer science—by the time you have a basic understanding of mathematics, you can build powerful minds.
I’m hoping that you can offer a convincing case that this is the only way to learn how to design a mind, by the way. I would like to propose something that is not just a little bit more realistic but has the opposite effect. It is perhaps the most difficult and interesting part of mathematics.
It would be interesting to hear whether you have any ideas that might help at such a fundamental level.
