I thought it was clear. A program, which goal is only to improve itself, as much as possible, when advanced enough, CAN influence its hardware. I don’t know exactly what would be the best way to do it, but I imagine that some tinkering with the electrical currents inside the CPU might alter it on a nondestructive way as well.
The “well understood upper limit” of the PI calculating will wait for an improved hardware. Improved with the whole Earth, for example.
Search lesswrong.com and Yudkowsky about this, it is one of a few things I agree with them.
Again, this is not what I mean..
Please note that I’m asking WHY you think your assertions are true.
