Autocatalyzing Intelligence Symbiosis: Alex Peake at H+ 2011

Alex Peake, founder of Primer Labs and creator of the Code Hero game has a mission to foster a new generation of meme hackers who understand their intimate entanglement with technology.

In this lively and engaging talk given at the 2011 Humanity+ conference (held at Caltech), Peake argues that we have a choice ahead of us: to embrace our far more cybernetically enhanced children as they participate in inventing and shaping True AI, or to recoil in horror and fight back in futility. He hopes we choose the former, and founded Primer Labs to play his part in creating the conditions necessary to bring about the autocatalysis of intelligence symbiosis — the intentional marriage of the minds of machine and man.

When queried for comment, Peake remarked that he’d had to cut what he considered to be an important point from the Red Queen section of the talk. Here’s his annotation to this talk which fills in that gap.

We are no longer sufficient input for our children.

They need us to add the temetic ai to the mix to form essentially a second species much like the red queen explains the value of dual gender sources: increased adaptiveness to survive the predation of microorganisms just as we must handle our rising tide of memetic influences. Generations are epochs compared to the iteratively improved law of accelerating return changes.

The cycles of marketers to control people and scientists to advance the state of the art require us to up our game and raise our kids with the machine mentors to augment their development apace with the attempts to hijack it by influencers and the need to recreate solutions faster than problems.

More autocatalyzing coders means more rapid progress towards the singularity and more people with the perspective to be masters of tech rather than slaves to it. combining our generational parenting upbringings with learning to self-improve an autocatalytic iterative intelligence amplification a.i. is a way to immanentize and humanize the eschaton.
