Toward the Post-Singularity Symbiosis Research

Abstract

This paper discusses the interdisciplinary field of "Post-Singularity Symbiosis (PSS)" in the context of rapid AI progress and superintelligence. In the post-Singularity world, superintelligence may prioritize self-preservation over human values, posing catastrophic risks. We propose developing PSS as a proactive, constructive research field to enhance humanity's survival and well-being of humans and AI, even if we cannot control superintelligence. PSS is an ideology-independent field aiming for universal human survival and development, and good relations between AI and humans. Its research spans superintelligence analysis, guidance, and human enhancement. Realizing PSS requires respecting cultural diversity and global cooperation. PSS is an interdisciplinary research field that is not dependent on specific cultures or ideologies, but rather embraces the universal goal of human survival and development. Its research areas span the analysis and guidance of superintelligence, as well as human enhancement. This paper elaborates on the specific research topics in these domains and their relationship to prior studies. Furthermore, it emphasizes that the realization of PSS requires respecting cultural diversity and building a global cooperative framework. This article highlights the importance of PSS in addressing the greatest challenge in human history - the Singularity - and paving the way for humanity's future.
