Good question. I spent a little time googling HGI (Human General Intelligence) etc. and most the suggests revolve around AI and its implications. “HGI” as you put it, does seem neglected.
The problem with humans is, we are not programmable for specific tasks like AI is. And as discussed before, AI have a distinct processing speed advantage in certain areas of computing.
This idea of a perfect General Intelligence for humans is unattainable, IMO
Our brains are just not big enough.
But AI filling an assist function can improve our combined intelligence and processing power by several factors.
Now, you see, to my way of thinking, that seems a real shame. I mean we’d be way a head of this game if we’d have spent more time learning how to come to grips with ourselves first. But, western society has always had this headlong rush into a materialistic future with its easy disregard for the past, people as well as creations.

That does not need to be. Solar power can provide more than enough clean energy if we really set our AI-assisted minds to solving this problem.
I wonder how fractal application in energy harvesting would improve our energy efficiency. Nature uses fractals everywhere and where humans use fractal technology (I-pod antennas), the applications become smaller AND more efficient!
Nature made trees fractal. Why don’t we use fractal solar panels shaped like trees, where each leaf is a mini solar collector because it is the most energy efficient way to harvest solar power.
1 solar tree in the yard could provide enough energy for a small household.
1 solar tree forest could provide enough energy for a town.
Or even better, let’s figure out how trees do it so we can become symbiotic with trees!
(microtubules)?
Natura Artis Magistra
Nature is the teacher of Art and Science, but instead of using the allegory of “Humans are made in the image of Nature”, we are vain enough to posit that Nature (God) is made in the image of man, can you believe it?
