So if there is life on Venus we must describe what is the lifeform.

  

So if there is life on Venus we must describe what is the lifeform.

A lifeform is a thing, that can copy itself and make descendants. This is the thing that makes the lifeform. The intelligent lifeforms are a more complicated thing to describe. Could the intelligent lifeforms be the things, what actions are planned and affect other species and its environment, or could that thing what we call the "intelligence" be some kind of ability to communicate with other individuals in the group of members of the community.

 And at this point, we must say that the bacteria also communicate with each other. They are using the chemical transmitters to find and recognize the other bacteria, which are the same species. So if we are thinking that way, also bacteria can communicate, but we think that they are not intelligent. Bacteria are also defending themselves by using the chemicals, what mission is to neutralize the attacking chemicals, and bacteria are infecting tissues. So the fact is that the bacteria are affecting their environment. 

The chemical communication between bacteria is the thing that we cannot understand. We cannot talk with the bacteria, because our neurons cannot recognize those chemical signals. But one very interesting vision is "what if we would manipulate our neurons that they can receive the chemical signals from bacteria". 

If we are hybridizing neurons and vegetable cells, that thing makes it possible to make the biocomputer, which has the same IQ as us. 

When we are thinking that the single bacteria is not intelligent, we are forgetting that billions of bacteria are a little bit different thing. Bacteria can store things in their DNA, and that means that the bacteria collectives can be used to store data in the chemical form. The same way there is a possibility that by using bio- and nanotechnology there is the possibility to make the hybrid cells, what are taking nutrients from the soil. That means that the vegetable cells are combined with the neurons. And the electric signals of those things are read by EEG-sensors, and the electromagnetic stimulation would give missions to that biocomputer. 

So are some species stupid because we cannot understand them? Or are they unnecessary, because we cannot see them? Even if bacteria are causing infections they are a vital part of the ecosystem. We cannot live with bacteria, what are handling nutrients in the digestion that the cells of the human body can receive the nutrient.

Other bacteria that live on our skin are destroying fungus what might be harmful. So bacteria are defending us. Like they are defending the entire planet. But that way to think is quite simple, and the fact is that bacteria on Earth are not intelligent in the way, that they would willingly defend our planet, that we can give them commands. But it's possible to create the chemicals that bacteria are using their communication. And by using some of those chemicals the operator can show to bacteria, that some target is the food, and aim bacteria to attack them. 

Is some alien from other planets are landing on the Central Park of New York, billions of bacteria will attack them at that point, which is the thing that we want to believe. The fact is that every action that bacteria makes is reflexes. But the fact is that bacteria probably don't react to aliens. There is a possibility that bacteria don't recognize the antigens and proteins of the alien body as a nutrient, and they are not starting to make poisons to eat those tissues. 

Bacteria are making poisons for defending themselves but the most important thing for that process is bacteria are using their chemicals only for taking nutrients. And there is a possibility that bacteria can hybridize with neurons, which makes the structure what is called the intelligent fungus. How would our world look like after that?  And then we must remember that we are the combination of cells. 

If we are thinking that we are intelligent, we are forgetting the accuracy. Only some part of our cells is intelligent. Brains are the collective structure of neurons, what are the cells, what are making us intelligent. A single neuron is not impressively intelligent if we are talking about natural structures. 

But if we will make 200 billion loop connections on that neuron, we can make it intelligent. In this case, the chains of carbon atoms would connect the axons back to that neuron itself. So if we are using things like highly advanced nanotechnology, we can create the biocomputer, where is one or two neurons, and 200 billion connections. 

Is Von Neumann machine or machine, what creates copies intelligent?

And how we show that we are intelligent? We are making houses, we are using computers and we can fly to space. But if we are thinking that life is just only communication and the ability to build space rockets and houses, we can think that robots can make the same thing. We don't need quantum computers for making robot factory, what is controlling other robots. This thing is called "Von Neumann-machines". That term means a machine, which can make copies of themselves. The thing is that the Von Neumann machine might seem very impressive and make very complicated things. 

But the fact is, that the Von Neumann machine cannot create anything new. It can copy itself, and make things, what the creators of that machine are stored in its hard disk. And we could create that kind of machine by using existing technology. The thing is that the Von Neumann machine can defend itself if that kind of action is programmed in its memories. And that means that the Von Neumann-machine can affect its environment. 

In that case, the robot factory is operating by using supercomputers and artificial intelligence, and it sends the other robots to search for raw materials. Then the production robots would start to make the rockets by using those raw materials. The robot factory might have advanced CAD(Computer-Aided Desing)/ (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) systems, which are making the rockets by using the instructions and drawings that are stored in its mass memories. 

The slave robots can have laser spectrometers for hunting the suitable materials fro nature. And then they bring those things to the factory. But the question is that is the factory intelligent? It might have the ability to make a copy of itself, if it's safe hangar is going to bad condition or repair its robot workers, what might look like humans like in some "I, Robot" movie. But they can be like some other things like manufacturing robots in the car factory. But the thing is that the robot factory or "Von Neumann-machine" can make everything, what is stored in its hard disk. It cannot create anything new.
