"I have programs that have evolved within the computer from nothing, and they do fairly complicated things.
You begin putting in sequences of random instructions, and these programs compete and interact with each other and have sex with each other and produce new generations of programs.
If you put them in a world where they survive by solving a problem, then with each successive generation they get better and better at solving the problem, and after a few hundred thousands generations they solve the problem very well.
That approach may actually be used to produce the thinking machine.
Sometimes men build robots, sometimes robots build men, what does it matter really, whether one thinks with metal or with protoplasm?"
