you would create a social nightmare politically and socially. The less interference in the political process [but never without consultation] the clearer the outcome. Total social input would become grey noise. The lowest common denominator would win. Populist politics is bad enough as it is. Representative democracy on the Scandinavian-Swiss model is credible as a system that seems to steer away from any form of extremism.

IQ tests verify inbuilt biases of the one doing the questioning. I have failed these gloriously yet got distinctions at uni. Tests per se mean nothing. [I blame psychologists]. As for non human systems they may mimic intelligence but unless they have sentience they will remain machines. [luckily]
I laughed [then chocked] on the idea the eating potatoes makes you more intelligent [well maybe carrots] couple that with the idea of more singular brains = better intelligence—is just too much. For the food=intelligence works only in extreme cases of under nourishment but the social resonance has far more effect on a mind than a potato [does not equal eat what you are]. If you are stupid bad luck. That is why zen masters don’t guarantee anything. Some individuals are hopeless and will be so for ever. As for group mind thinking to a better intelligence is laughable in its flawed assumption. Look at the intellectual success rate of the 4 Scandinavian countries and what they have achieved socially individually and mentally given their superior equitable social system etc and the whole of some OVERPOPULATED countries totally lost and beyond hope of even saving themselves & who by default they should be leading ruling the world. And are not. The whole AI hypothesis is flawed. [more of that later]. Take drugs: opium is a very cerebral effective set of molecules. The Middle East enjoyed it for centuries if not millennia yet beer drinking tea drinking Britain made that crucial breakthrough known as the Industrial Revolution. Social modelling just wont work nor will implied assumptions. Intelligence follows chaos equations melded with random algorithms.
WBEs are a worry. They can be used to carry dangerous information which a normal [suppressed laughter] may recoil from. But worse if this is carried off it may also attract sentient consciousness-awareness just like us. Frankenstein 2.0 Anyway we got 7 billion [6 too many] humans. Why would se want to do this? Space exploration by remote control to get the human feel of alien environments. Again-my only worry is that this process-construct may become a-live. And have it’s own ideas which are not in conjunction for the very reason it was crafted. Or it may outsmart its creators. And if controlled by whatever means—insertion of compliant resonant mind-states- it could rebel and become a terrorist. We are mad enough as it is. Personally as stated initially this is not the best solution to AI.

YES. AI under present knowledge systems wont deliver the promise of real live intelligence. And the author[s] get bogged in computational details that delay detract for greater efficiency in the cognitive field. Still it’s a rippa of a project. Given how hopeless humans are globally machine logic might offer real time solutions such as less humans to start off with. Would solve heaps of other problems we have and are creating.
