Now it doesn’t seem like your program is really a general artificial intelligence—improving our solutions to NP problems is neat, but not “general intelligence.”
General induction, general mathematical proving, etc. aren’t general intelligence? Anyway, the original post concerned optimizing things program code, which can be done if the optimizations have to be proven.
Further, there’s no reason to think that “easy to verify but hard to solve problems” include improvements to the program itself. In fact, there’s every reason to think this isn’t so.
That’s what step (3) is. Program (3) is itself an optimizable function which runs relatively quickly.
