BEVM and the myth of intelligence: exploring self, self reference, and vicious circles
What is intelligence? This question has troubled philosophers and scientists for thousands of years. From Socrates in ancient Greece to the modern Turing test, people have never stopped exploring the essence of intelligence. Hou Shida provides us with a unique perspective in his monumental work "G ö del, Escher, and Bach: The Great Collection of Extraordinary Treasures": intelligence is a mapping of the "self", the ability of a system to encode and reflect on itself.
Hou Shida's viewpoint was deeply influenced by G ö del's incompleteness theorem. G ö del proved that any sufficiently complex axiomatic system has true propositions that cannot be proven, revealing the limitations of formal systems and implying the essence of intelligence - intelligence is not simply logical reasoning, but encompasses deeper concepts such as self reference, recursion, and loops.
1、 Self pointing and vicious circles: the cornerstone of intelligence
Self referential refers to a concept or symbol pointing towards itself, such as' this sentence is false '. This self referential structure is widely present in language, logic, and art, and also forms the cornerstone of intelligence. Hou Shida believes that the emergence of intelligence stems from the system's perception and reflection on itself, that is, the system can encode and operate itself as an object.
A vicious circle is a special form of self designation that points to an infinitely looping structure, such as the "endless staircase" and "waterfall" in Escher's paintings. The vicious circle reveals the complexity and contradictions within the system, and also implies the openness and infinite possibilities of intelligence.
2、 The Emergence of Intelligence: From Simple to Complex
Hou Shida believes that intelligence is not pre designed, but emerges from simple rules and structures. Just like Bach's music, simple notes form complex and harmonious movements through intricate combinations and arrangements. The emergence of intelligence is similar, as systems continuously organize, learn, and evolve themselves, ultimately forming the ability to perceive, think, and create.
3、 Satoshi Nakamoto's Inspiration: The Emergence of Intelligence in Bitcoin
Satoshi Nakamoto cleverly utilized the self referential nature of hash functions in designing Bitcoin, making it a system with "intelligence". The proof of work mechanism of Bitcoin requires miners to constantly try different nonce values and perform hash operations until they find a hash value that meets specific conditions. This process can be seen as a form of "self referential": the system continuously hashes its own state and ultimately "finds" a specific state of itself (i.e., a block that satisfies the condition).
This self referential mechanism enables the Bitcoin system to achieve distributed consensus without centralized control, and ensures the security and stability of the system. Satoshi Nakamoto's design philosophy provides valuable insights for BEVM: intelligence does not come from complex algorithms and massive data, but from the clever application of simple rules and trust in the system's self-organizing ability.
4 BEVM: The pursuit of intelligent cryptocurrency
BEVM's intelligent narrative is built on a profound understanding of the essence of intelligence. BEVM not only views cryptocurrency as a technological tool, but also as a complex and adaptive system, and attempts to endow it with features similar to human intelligence through scientific methods such as Wiener control theory, complex systems, and nonlinear dynamics, as well as drawing inspiration from Satoshi Nakamoto's design philosophy.
BEVM is committed to building a decentralized and autonomous cryptocurrency system that can operate independently, unaffected by human intervention, and self regulate according to changes in the external environment. BEVM will also explore the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies in the field of cryptocurrency, enabling the system to learn from historical data and user behavior, continuously optimize its own performance, and improve efficiency and security.
5、 Conclusion
BEVM's intelligent narrative is an exploration of the essence of intelligence and a prospect for the future of cryptocurrency. BEVM believes that by drawing on the wisdom of thinkers such as Hou Shida, as well as a deep understanding of concepts such as self pointing and vicious circles, and learning from Satoshi Nakamoto's design philosophy, we can inject deeper intelligence into cryptocurrency, making it go beyond simple technological tools and become a living, constantly evolving system, ultimately driving human society into a smarter and better future.
