Why do you consider the possibility of smarter than Human AI at all? The difference between the AI we have now and that is bigger than the difference between those 2 technologies you are comparing.
I don't understand why you are bothering asking your question - but to give a literal answer, my interest in synthesising intelligent agents is an offshoot of my interest in creating living things - which is an interest I have had for a long time and share with many others. Machine intelligence is obviously possible - assuming you have a materialist and naturalist world-view like mine.
I misunderstood. I thought you were saying it was your goal to prove that instead of you thought it would not be proven. My question does not make sense.
Thanks for clarifying!
