Why BICA is necessary for AGI

Abstract

The challenge of creating AGI is better understood in the context of recent studies of biologically inspired cognitive architectures (BICA). While the solution is still far away, promising ideas can be derived from biological inspirations. The notions of a chain reaction, its critical mass and scaling laws prove to be helpful in understanding the conditions for a self-sustained bootstrapped cognitive of artifacts. Empirical identification of the critical mass of intelligence is possible using the BICA framework and scalability criteria.
