This seems phenomenally, almost absurdly unlikely to me...
but of course, even I'm not always right, your intuition may
end up being on target
My intuition is that there's going to be a huge diversity of possible ways
to achieve intelligence increase by self-enhancement, each one with its own
advantages and disadvantages in various environments.
