Abstract
A manifesto for a new kind of intelligence. De-emphasising the Kurzweilian portrayal of a sudden singularity — we are already in it — the paper proposes Artificial Random Intelligence: arbitrary and capricious threshold activation functions and randomly assigned weights within a pre-ordained, ordered neural framework. The litmus test must not be how human we can make AI, but how inhuman. Moving beyond the Turing Test, it calls for an extraterrestrial, randomised framework — and closes on the creed of sigma ergo sum: 'Now I am become life, the creator of worlds.'
