Dont worry, Ill explain what this has to do with self-aware robots in due course.

The Eddington-Finkelstein metric didnt misbehave at any point in that trajectory.
But the new theory says otherwise.
And that seems like it should be awesome.
But lets take a closer look at the research, shall we?
The ultimate goal is achieving human-level AI, also known asartificial general intelligence(AGI).
However, the worlds foremost leading expertscant quite agreeon exactly how were supposed to achieve this.
Its impossible to tell if were actually making progress towards AGI.
It could happen tomorrow, in 100 years, or never.
We live ina quantum universe.
Our current understanding of time is essential to how we interpret the math of physics.
So how far is a meter at the edge of a black hole?
The physics surrounding this version of our universe would imply that time can be disrupted.
And, like all permutable things in our universe, it should be subject to observer theory.
And that would, theoretically, mean the machine could experience a singular moment of self-awareness.
Hence the term AI singularity.
In this version of the universe, were rooting for a paradigm where nothing can escape a black hole.
If it can escape a black hole, that indicates itsobserver-independentand, thus, likely discrete.
You know how some apps wont work if your computers time and date arent set properly?
That, but for the entire universe.
Then again, maybe Koiran is wrong.
Maybe the laws of physics make it theoretically impossible to traverse a wormhole.
Maybe they dont even exist!
In which case, no, you cant have the last 10 minutes of your life back.
But you could read the research in fullhere.
