I value your weird rant. Yes it did go on as a thought stream, but there's sense in there.

I've been thinking a lot around a kind of smart-people paradox: very intellectual arguments all basically plotting a line toward some inevitable conclusion like super intelligence or consciousness. Everything is a raw compute problem.

While at the same time all scientific progress gives us more and more evidence that reality is non-computable, non linear.

What scientific problems are non-computable?

ANNs are designed to handle non-linearities BTW, thats the entire point of activation functions and multi layer networks

		non computable, non-linear as in given known input parameters you can determine the output parameters. we can't do that for mostly any complex physical system, as would be for something like living organisms.
