I believe that we will be able to build artificially intelligent general intelligences, I'd be surprised if this happens in my lifetime, but I do believe it will happen at some point. If it does I suspect the possible outcomes are:
- Good - we end up with a society that looks like a low tech version of the Culture with AIs and humans co-existing
- Bad - See The Second Renaissance from the Animatrix
- Weird - Economics 2.0 from Accelerando
I think at this moment in time I'd probably go with "Weird" as my estimate of the most likely outcome!
