[pandorabots-general] Super Intelligent Machines.

[SolarisZen DaFluffy]

The thing is that humans in general are not that smart, so it is very conceivable to achieve a higher intelligence artificially.  The problem I face with todays artificial intelligence bots such as "Alice" is that they seem to mimic the puppet and the master model.  Where the bot master is the master and the bot the puppet.

Would we humans be able to comprehend how ingenious such a machine could be?
