gence is and forever will be unsurpassed. I don t take any comfort in that illusion. AI is an evolving, uncompromising, unrelenting reality.

If you pass alternating current through a diode it does not emerge unchanged on the other side (Fig. 10-7). A recti er converts AC to DC, more or less. One diode is a half-wave recti er, since only half of the waveform makes it through the diode. The circle with the sine wave in it is a generic signal generator and is the source of our AC signal. The tap in the upper left of the circuit shows where we measure the signal voltage relative to ground. Likewise, the tap after the diode shows the e ect the diode has on the signal. The resistor is a generic load and isn t really relevant to the recti cation process. Half of our power is being blocked by the diode. If you wanted to keep the signal positive without losing half of its power, you need more diodes to make a full-wave or bridge recti er as shown in Fig. 10-8.

Would we as the human race want to produce an intelligence superior to our own If you think about it, in the long run we may need to just to survive. Think of the advantages for the first nation that produced an AI machine with an IQ of 300. The AI machine could be given tasks such as improving the national economy, cleaning up the environment, ending pollution, developing military strategy in the event of war, performing medical and scientific research, and, of course, designing still smarter machines than itself. It s possible that the next theory of the universe will not be put forth by a human (as previously done by Albert Einstein) but by a competent AI machine.

Why is creating a superior intelligence so important Wouldn t humankind find the answers to all these vexing problems eventually Perhaps. The necessity of generating a superior AI is best illustrated with a story. I once heard or read this story. I m afraid I don t remember the author and to him or her I apologize. And if I have changed the story a bit in the retelling, I apologize for that also. Ten chimpanzees are in a cage. The cage door is locked. To reason how to unlock the lock and open the cage door requires an intelligence quotient (IQ) of approximately 90. Each chimp in the cage has been tested, and each has an IQ of about 60. Could the 10 chimps working together find a way to unlock the cage door The answer is NO! Intelligence is not accumulative. If it were, the 10 chimps working together would have a combined IQ of 600, more than enough to reason out how to open the cage door. In real life the chimps remain caged. In the real world we have problems involving global pollution, economics, diseases like cancer and AIDs, the general quest for longevity, and any and all facets of science research that can be substituted for the lock on the cage door. The importance of generating superior AI becomes clearly apparent. The AI may be able to uncover keys to unlock these problems that until then will remain effectively hidden from us.
