Teach it how to allocate space, and you resize it dynamically for a lifetime.

Limitations of the brain, both natural and artificial, forces the organism to prioritize their pieces of knowledge.
Imagination versus programming is like levitation versus driving.
The latter requires sophisticated, already material, machinary to instruct abstract commands; the former requires nothing but the brain itself.
The latter is based on the slow process of learning to master the machine-specific instructions; the former depends only upon intuition, already genetically embedded.
The former is impossible to materialize; the latter, however laborious to implement, is possible to materialize, i.e. execute.
Somewhere in the middle lies our compromise.

Upon the destruction of a possessed object, the possessor objects experience an event of dispossession.
Evolution would dictate machine get better sensory input than man; but having taken evolution into our own hands, we've blindly given the machine "vision".
Leave behind, the era of climbing abstractions. Let your imagination ascend freely. Whatever you can imagine must be realizable.
“When wireless is perfectly applied the whole earth will be converted into a huge brain, which in fact it is, all things being particles of a real and rhythmic whole.”

Too much freedom of execution in an object's context leaves little room for optimizations.
Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves the rest of the land unexplored.
