Motivation

Irving J., Good defines Superintelligence in 1965 as: "Let an ultraintelligent machine be defined as a machine that can far surpass all the intellectual activities of any man however clever." The recent developments in Neural Networks with Transformers and Large Language Models are showing us glimpses of what Superintelligence is capable of, affecting every field of knowledge and research. It is essential to prepare as well as understand the foundations of such machines. The topic of Superintelligence is interdisciplinary in nature.
