There are many potential consequences to computers reaching and surpassing human intelligence. When I try to speculate what that intelligence may be like I start to think about how this super-intelligence should go about thinking.
I put most of my stock in a logical system of thinking. It seems to be the most general and beneficial to human society and progress.
Mathematics is the language of reality while physics applies that language into logical systems which most accurately represent the physical nature of reality. Science is the tangible testing of these theories to discover the most accurate representation of reality.
If two separate people look at a problem logically, it is very likely they can come to different conclusions. Person A may go about applying a different frame of mind to a problem based on a past experience pertaining to the problem. Person B may apply the same steadfast system of logic that has never failed him/her before. I do not doubt that two reasonable and logical people can look at the same problem and produce different results many times.
