I think it'd be easier to invent our own virtual species of worm that lives
on a PC.

The problem is, we want to create a sentient entity, right?

Probably the easiest option, wouldn't you say?

There are two approaches:

1. create an actual AI entity whose "world" is the PC (+internet). The PC's
hardware thus becomes its "body."
2. EMULATE an AI entity in an artificial (emulated) virtual environment (a
worm in a glass bowl, for instance).

I don't know which would be easier. I'd like to hear thoughts on it before I
delve into it more.
