Reply to comment by Ortus14 in We don't need AGI for the Singularity to happen. We need ultra-powerful Simulators. by IluvBsissa

But what if we just simulate a fundamental embryonic cell and let it grow in a simulated womb, to see how it develops and...aww shit we don't know how the womb works either...and maybe just basic tissues in a simulated petri dish ? Idk.

Some simulations will help, especially those aided by Ai.

The protein folding problem was solved by an Ai, but you could call it a simulation that learned how to simulate given lots of examples.

I think the aging problem is best attacked from all angles.

Regardless of the approaches, the increasing levels of computation will make all problems much easier to solve.
