Welcome to Superintelligence . This is the book that potentially arms us against our own creations. Are we really ready for a machine superintelligence? Will this new intelligence surpass humanity in general intelligence? This new super-intelligent entity could become extremely powerful and decide the fate of humankind. We get to make the first move.

Is it possible to construct a seed artificial intelligence, or "reach criticality", so we can engineer initial conditions such that an intelligence explosion is survivable?
