Jupiter Brain

A Jupiter Brain is a kind of artifact, an immense, gas giant-sized super computer with a massive mind.

• A similar concept is known as a Matrioshka Mind, Matrioshka Brain, and by other terms.

Description (Specifications)

Jupiter brains have long been a goal of information technology and would be a massive artificial planet filled with computronium and designed to create a massive mind, an artificial thinking matrix capable of unparalleled analysis, calculation, and heuristic projection.

History & Background (Dossier)

Science fiction has long written about the concept and if current technological projections hold, it may become available during the TL:19-27 technological period.

It would require massive material transmutational capability as naturally occurring computronium, the hypothetical perfect memory storage matrix, doesn't naturally exist in the projected quantities required for this megaproject. Much like Dyson Spheres, it is a thought experiment far out of reach of TL:13-15 Charted Space.

Expected Artificial Intelligence Development Sequence

MACRO LEVEL:

• Automaton (Mechanistic Machine) → Brain (Calculating Machine) → Mind (Thinking Machine) → True Artificial Intelligence (Feeling Machine) → Jupiter Brain (Ultra-calculational Machine) → Matrioshka Mind (Hyper-calculational Machine) → Omni-Heuristic Mind (Machine Life)
