' Sufficiently advanced technology may literally conjure itself into being in the no-space and no-time of time loops, without anybody doing a lick of intellectual or technical work. '
' This could make runaway technological development envisioned and feared around AI seem almost trivial, and it is another reason why governments may try hard to keep this technology secret. In fact, it really wouldn’t be technological “development” in the usual sense but spontaneous emergence arising from a kind of bootstrapping - the same kind of bootstrapping depicted by James Cameron in his Terminator films, where debris from future AI discovered by a defense contractor is used to back-engineer that very AI, in a loop. It is more like technological fast-forwarding, skipping over the intermediate steps that our present, linear understanding of science and knowledge rests on. '
