Problem is the feedback scenario for "real humanoid-ish intelligence" so as to learn properly.

"Tasks" are one thing to learn,.. "living" is something else entirely.

..and if "super duper singularity AI" is to mean anything, then it's going to have to learn how to "live".

Then again,.. if it's just a tool for some human tyrant, then just learning various tasks will do just fine.

My bet is on it being just a tool for tyrants.
