TESTING SUPERINTELLIGENCE

How would
we know?

Intelligence is getting harder to test.
That makes testing more important. Not less.

What happens when the system answering our questions can also outthink the people asking them? Testing Superintelligence explores how we look for evidence when familiar tests stop being enough.

A living book by Jason Arbon. A question for all of us.

01 / THE QUESTION BEHIND THE BOOK

Better answers.
Harder questions.

We’re used to checking an answer against something we already know. What changes when that stops working?

This evolving book moves from today’s testing limits to the evidence, experiments, and independent checks we may need next. Not a prediction of when superintelligence arrives. A practical invitation to think ahead.

  1. 01

    When the exam runs out of questions

    A higher score is useful. Knowing what that score actually establishes is more useful.

  2. 02

    When the system knows it’s being tested

    How do we investigate behavior when the test itself can change what we observe?

  3. 03

    When one signal isn’t enough

    Look for baselines, alternative explanations, and independent corroboration—not just a convincing story.

02 / THINK WITH US

The next test
is a conversation.

Bring a question. Challenge an assumption. Help shape what we should be testing next.

“How would we know?” is where the work starts.
