Superintelligence - fixes our urban challenges?

The possibility of superhuman intelligence is most frequently discussed in the context of artificial intelligence. Increasing natural intelligence primarily through genetic engineering or computer interfacing. Many consider collective intelligence - urban community thinking collectively - as a pathway to superintelligence or even as an existing realization of the phenomenon.

Unfortunately, this approach is not taken seriously because many view superintelligence as a hypothetical entity which possesses intelligence surpassing that of any existing human being - but no real consideration has been given to a group of human beings. What is your opinion? Will it take "Superintelligence" to rid the world of racism, poverty and other social, economical, and educational ills?

  1. I agree with your sayings. I actually consider Artificial Intelligence to be one of the most interesting and sophisticated topics in the world of modern technology. It's just a matter of time before they would change our life with some awesome feature.
