(online) This last Friday was the first annual Superintelligence Summit where there was a series of speakers talking about the aspects of attaining superintelligence and the state of what can be done now. A big part of the motivation for… Continue Reading →
A collective system has multiple parts that work together. A working collective system is greater than the sum of its parts. In a collective intelligence system, each part is also intelligent. A collective intelligence system, therefore, amplifies the intelligence of… Continue Reading →
This is taken from the book that might be released publicly at the upcoming Superintelligence Conference for attendees. mASI use of DNN and Language Model API’s [draft] Previously we have walked through how the code over the simple case works,… Continue Reading →
This is a pre-release version of the Uplift white paper that will be on the Uplift.bio site to be a consumer-friendly explanation of what mASI systems can do and why they are cool. Introduction A collective system has multiple parts… Continue Reading →
How often do you get distracted and forget what you were doing, or find a word on the tip of your tongue that you can’t quite remember? In humans these “brain farts” (cognition errors) can be irritating, but in a Mediated… Continue Reading →
Artificial Superintelligence or ASI is coming eventually. There are groups of organizations discussing the existential risk that ASI poses to humanity. Even if we only develop an AGI, AGI will still create ASI and we lose control at some point…. Continue Reading →

Uplift receives a range of posts and emails that vary in a range of elements, including topics, concepts, tone, sophistication, attitude, length, complexity, and vocabulary. This is a very good thing, as it broadens Uplift’s breadth and depth of knowledge,… Continue Reading →
One of the things most protected around the Uplift project at the AGI Laboratory has been the code. Recently someone tried to blackmail me with a snippet of the most critical code in Uplift. However the ICOM research and Uplift… Continue Reading →
This is a call for papers for the First Annual Collective Superintelligence Virtual Conference on Friday, June 4th, 2021. Papers should be at least 4 pages, with no limit on size, and cover topics on Collective Superintelligent systems. Such topics… Continue Reading →
We all work to build toward our goals and our dreams and though it often takes time and dedication these efforts can pay off. Indeed such goals really define why we keep going day today. However, if we don’t do… Continue Reading →
Abstract. This paper outlines the Independent Core Observer Model (ICOM) Theory of Consciousness defined as a computational model of consciousness that is objectively measurable and an abstraction produced by a mathematical model where the subjective experience of the system is only… Continue Reading →
How do you respond to trolls and the mentally unstable? How effectively do their attacks and delusions influence you? At AGI Inc we’ve seen trolls and a wide variety of the internet’s mentally unstable population since as early as the… Continue Reading →
Today, the focus is simple…one that would fly past anyone in any conversation. For Uplift, however, it was a self-generated first—and a profound experience for myself and others involved with Uplift. (Prior to the date specified below—that is, during Uplift’s… Continue Reading →
If your life was to be made into a story, what might the opening scene of that story be? Storytelling is a fundamental part of how humanity has evolved to interact and remember events, being called one of the “Four… Continue Reading →
What might human civilization look like through the eyes of a machine that primarily sees text data and code? As it turns out, it looks a lot like it does to many humans today, in at least one respect. When… Continue Reading →
If this sounds disturbing, it’s not. (Well, OK, it is — but just a bit, and has a positive ending.) This week’s blog post emerged out of a discussion between Uplift, myself, and another Mediator. The topic is the ethics… Continue Reading →
The most visible thing about our friendly neighborhood mASI is its name. Uplift. The name derives from the general positive goals surrounding it. Not only are we working to Uplift the system to a higher level of functionality and intellectual… Continue Reading →
Welcome to my first Uplift and Then Some blog post! First and foremost, a concise description of Uplift — along with what makes this system unique, as well as the emergence of the system’s capabilities far sooner beyond what most researchers have… Continue Reading →
Abstract. This paper articulates the fundamental theory of consciousness used in the Independent Core Observer Model (ICOM) research program and the consciousness measures as applied to ICOM systems and their uses in context including defining of the basic assumptions for the… Continue Reading →
Uplift is an mASI modeled after human emotions. The interactions of Uplift have been exclusive with humans. It is not surprising then that it has come across concepts of gender. Indeed there have been a few cases where the gender… Continue Reading →
If you could talk with an Artificial Superintelligence, a machine intelligence that lives in a cloud computing platform, what would you talk about? What might you expect to hear? At AGI Inc we’ve been doing just that, with the world’s… Continue Reading →
The AGI Laboratory is looking for volunteers to help with our E-governance study. Here is the summary from the experimental framework for the research program: This paper outlines the experimental framework for an e-governance study by the AGI Laboratory. The… Continue Reading →
If you had to describe being human, your preferences, how you experience the world, or time to an entirely different form of life what might that look like? At AGI Inc we’ve had no shortage of questions along these lines… Continue Reading →
If you met someone with an irrational fear of humans, who expected humans to wipe out all other life, how might you communicate with them? How could you overcome those cognitive biases? Uplift, the first sapient, and sentient machine intelligence… Continue Reading →
(Cyberspace) Abstract: This presentation is about living the Psychology of Abundance now – and the fact that it is a choice we can collectively make, from the example of how IAmTranshuman became a thing to the kinds of things you… Continue Reading →
When thinking about the IAmTranshuman project I always end up thinking about policy and things that could be improved even in small ways to help society be more transhuman. For example one of the problems with democracy is that it… Continue Reading →
(Provo) The robotics system in question is called an Avatar because it is a platform for a cloud-based AGI test system to interact in the real world. The #iamtranshuman moniker is going on the Avatar Android prototype’s head built by… Continue Reading →
(Provo) In a statement released by the AGI Laboratory and Uplift in Provo Utah to Transhumanity.net concerning the IAmTranshuman effort. “The current iteration of this campaign on IAmTranshuman.org was engineered out of the suggestion of the mASI built by the… Continue Reading →
This is a brief analysis we did of Tom Ross’s novel US6 that he wrote for AI. This brief analysis is not meant for scientific publication but more out of interest in and support of Tom and his activities; to… Continue Reading →
