Abstract

The advent of the Mind Age of intelligent robots envisioned by Hans Moravec will bring profound transformations in
global social and technological structures and relations of an advanced intelligence to its environment. The ability of future
machines to directly share experiences and knowledge with each other will lead to evolution of intelligence from relatively
isolated individual minds to highly interconnected structural entities. The development of a network of communicating
mobile and stationary devices may be seen as a natural continuation of biological and technological processes leading to a
community of intentionally designed and globally interconnected structures. The growing reliance of system connections
on functional, rather than physical, proximity of their elements will dramatically transform the notions of personhood and
identity and create a new community of distributed "infomorphs" - advanced informational entities - that will bring the
ongoing process of liberation of functional structures from material dependence to its logical conclusions. The infomorph
society will be built on new organizational principles and will represent a blend of a superliquid economy, cyberspace
anarchy and advanced consciousness. The new system will incorporate many of today's structures and will develop new
traits transcending the limits of human understanding. Its evolution will evade human control, but relations of descendants
of humans and today's machines will be largely symbiotic and will lead to the emergence of a new ecology of intelligence.

acquire real intelligence approaching- and the...
