Supercomputing
By a “superintelligence” we mean an intellect that is much smarter than the
best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity,
general wisdom and social skills. This definition leaves open how the
superintelligence is implemented: it could be a digital computer, an
ensemble of networked computers, cultured cortical tissue or what have
you. It also leaves open whether the superintelligence is conscious and has
subjective experiences.
Entities such as companies or the scientific community are not
superintelligences according to this definition. Although they can perform a
number of tasks of which no individual human is capable, they are not
intellects and there are many fields in which they perform much worse than
a human brain – for example, you cant have
