Part 9/10:
Some speculate that the universe itself might be describable by an infinite set of primitives, and AI might, in theory, reach or even surpass this level of sophistication. For example, in fictional narratives like Ultron from the Avengers, a superintelligence achieves a kind of all-encompassing knowledge, capable of navigating all possible futures.
Conclusion: A Work in Progress
Ultimately, much of this remains speculative and rooted in analogies with neuroscience and computer science. Our understanding of cognition—all human or artificial—is incomplete. The intelligence optimum provides a compelling framework for analyzing how far current AI architectures can go, and whether further fundamental breakthroughs are necessary for true general or superintelligence.
