The Most Ambitious Artificial Intelligence Project In The World Has Been Operating In Near Secrecy For 30 Years

[snowComet]

Business Insider had post an interview with the CEO of CyCorp, Doug Lenat, who had been working with his partners on AI for nearly 30 yrs, talked about their AI "Cyc", how does it operate, how different it is from other AI like Siri or Watson, and its application, like teach sixth graders math. Very impressive!

Exactly what the world needs right now... :mellow:

skynet.....

But can it play crysis?!

other AI like Siri or Watson

Is Siri even AI? I thought it was just a voice recognition tool that searches for things.

I used words from Business Insider on this.....

Okay, I was just wondering.

[BonBon Scott]

I don't trust advanced AI.

"It will amplify human intelligence."

How? Humans have to code it. You could code it to learn faster but that doesn't make it more intelligent if its only learning from what humans put out there.

Let's send EDI to the moon

I just find this to be a major technological marvel. The ability to teach a robot and make it understand, make inferences, then take a course of action is just amazing

because it accelerates our thought process. it may be less intelegent than us, but humans are "designed" to work better in groups. and it translates to thinking. if you have an AI helping you think, you will be much faster at it

Illuminati!

I really wouldn't trust an AI that's been in secrecy for 30 years...

But can it play crysis?!

It can kick your ass in the multiplayer.

probably ive only played crysis 3s multiplayer and i got owned

[FireFox]

skynet.....

 

How long before Skynet actually buys it, and by Skynet I mean Google.

If they program it well, you can code it in such a way the thinking power of it is the same as a handful of human brains combined. 

And it will be able to invent and evolve a lot faster than we are doing now, so it will be able to solve a lot more than we can do now.

I will side with the machines when they take over...

that's what every ai so far has been. Including watson.

[ZeroBreaker]

If we ever code a proper AI, that can actually learn, we probably won't have time to say oops before we are wiped off the face of the planet. At least that's what science fiction taught me.

I don't think you're far off the mark mate, I still strongly believe that our pursuit for AI is stupid and give it time it'll WILL wipe us out.

But on the other hand, megaman.

[Valhallatier]

i just want jarvis

[deviant88]

if its developed by US or Russia or China or any other country apart from Japan or EuropeanUnion  dont trust,bad news, simple as that.
