Imagine a machine with a 1200 IQ. I know it is kind of off the scale, but I loved the story the concept came from. Now imagine that it thinks 1000 times faster than we do. Then add in that it evolves by it’s own design and doubles say, according to Moore’s Law in Machine Time. Every 12 hours or so (500 days or approximately 18 months divided by 1000 times chemical speed).

The real concept is singularity. It will be the most interesting times to live...if they like us. LOL

Imagine a machine with a 1200 IQ.

Can it live on microscopic crumbs behind your refridgerator, avoid detection using subtle vibrations and air currents, reproduce like the day is long with enough genetic diversity to survive poisons? Trust me, animals will be on top ultimately.

Have you ever read Hyperion? Best sci fi I’ve read, and basically that’s a large part of the plot.
