Great question My thoughts would be along the lines of numerous kids turn out to be smarter than their parents Not exactly AI in the traditional model but I would contend already happened with Facebook being smarter than Mark Zuckerberg, or at least has much more information than that which is contained in Zuckerberg's brain To be 'smarter' though perhaps Zuckerberg needs to put in a algorithm which finds novel ways to use the information PLUS write a novel algorithm which outdoes Zuckerberg's Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
"non computer person answer" how smart does a smart bomb have to be to be smart enough to be smarter than a person ?
I believe not. Humans will always be smarter and more intelligent than any Artificial Intelligence. Take a look at chess for instance: Gary Kasparov is still much better player than any chess-playing program invented to date.
Humans will always be smarter than AI... until humans start becomin extinct an AI continues to evolve.!!!
If AI is going to go on without humans, it's going to have to evolve its own power supply, its own repair systems, ideally its own reproductive system. It will have become AL.
Smart is short-term: a smart approach to a specific problem. Wisdom is long- term: a wise approach to an array of problems.
It doesn't need to be smarter than the people who developed it; it only needs to outlast them - which is not difficult. Once the non-computer people become dependent on AI, AI only needs to be smarter than them - which will not be difficult.
