= Consequences = It is possible to build a network of self-improving programs that modify each other to become faster and more secure. This could be combined with standard software testing practices to improve the speed of important algorithms automatically without the need for managers. It should be assumed that these aspects of the program are managed by a network of crowd-sourced, self-improving programs that take a human written set of algorithms and make them faster / more secure β the higher level definition is still human readable β so improvement contracts could be done transparently to the user by their development software.
