Can GHC become self-conscious?

Name: Anonymous 2016-03-03 19:26

As you know, GHC is compiled by itself. GHC also comes with an optimization engine. GHC's code optimization therefore optimizes itself. It is also a rather aggressive optimizer.

How long do you think we have until it becomes self-aware, recursively self modifying itself down to the point that it can instantly rewrite programs to run in O(1), having solved P=NP and so other computational problems?

Do you think 6 to 8 weeks is a reasonable estimate?

O(1) doesn't mean it takes zero time, it means that time does not increase with increasing input size.
