I couple of days ago, I watched a sci-fi animation short film titled Salya The First AGI which was introduced to me by my friend.
It was more scientific that most of the scifi movies I've ever seen and at the same time more surreal than most surreal movies I've watched. Something like a combination of Matrix , Aladedin and Salvatore Dali paintings.
It bring this question to my mind that whether AI can find new physical laws or change the existing laws of physic? It sounds so ambitions but interestingly in the movie the AI was planning for this!

Besides I'm interested to know whether there is any books about this topic?

Because that's what only a god can do and as many AI expert and tech giants such as Elon have mentioned, they are trying to create a digital god!
The movie made me think about whether AI could gain godly powers to change the laws of physics.
Until three years ago I could never even imagine that we could chat with our computers in three years!
After that I think the tech is growing faster than my imagination.
