The Age of Spiritual Machines

Be careful what you wish for.

We like to solve problems but we don't want them all solved, not too quickly anyway.

We are more attached to the problems than to the solutions.

Time speeds up or slows down in relation to the chaos in a given process.

Law of increasing Chaos:
As Chaos exponentially increases, time exponentially slows down i.e. the time interval between salient events grows longer as time passes.

Inverse Sublaw: Law of accelerating returns:
As order exponentially increases, time exponentially speeds up.

Evolution is a sloppy programmer.

Evolution has one deficiency. It is very slow.

Evolution is, thereby, only a quantum smarter than completely unintelligent behaviour.

What is intelligence:
Intelligence is the ability to use optimally limited resources including time to achieve a variety of goals.
