Hi everyone! I just wanted to have a discussion (for fun) about whether or not “true” AI (not necessarily general) exists in any form. Hopefully it’ll get our brain juices flowing and we’ll get cool ideas! To start, let me say that I am aware my idea is quite radical- ridiculous…

Depends on the context and the program Well, if you really want to hear opinions on the subject it’s always a good idea to start with some of the earliest commentators on the subject. Alan Turing wrote a paper on this very subject which also described his well-known Turing te…

Shrdlu Thanks for the Shrdlu reference…checked it out on Wiki. It would be fun to build one. The part I was the most intrigued by and have the least experience with was where it developed an understanding of “what is possible” in the physics of its world…dependencies, constrain…

Creating and Using Context I would totally agree on the comments about context…it is such a fundamental thing to trying to simulate thinking. So much so, that in my world, a “Context” object is about the only thing I pass around to all the software pieces that do anything analo…

That way of coding context That way of coding context is just so good that I wanted to ask… is it okay to use your way of “context coding” in my AI? I promise to give you full credit, even in the source code. I also would like to be able to release the AI (as safely as possible)…

My Thoughts I just wanted to weigh in on this subject as I do a lot of software design not just for work but on a personal side. I think that the answer to this is YES and NO and depends on the software that is running and how the software was wrote. I once read a blog that some…

Thank you so much, Martin! Thank you so much, Martin! :smiley:

Perception of Magic Imagine an observer who doesn’t know anything about how the code for a robot is written and witnesses an interesting set of behaviors. It is likely to be perceived as intelligent. It can even seem like “Magic”. To the creator, there is much less magic, for …

Something interesting popped Something interesting popped up in my mind while reading your comment… While I do agree with everything you’ve said, I feel like going back to my original post a little bit. Perhaps I was wrong in one of my earlier comments- do we really know when so…

I Don’t Know I certainly don’t have the answers. For now, I suppose it’s a matter of collective perception and opinion…someone pointed out the need for definitions, a difficult task which could depreciate what we are trying to appreciate – intelligence. I find Wolfram Alpha a…

Do computers/robots actually "think"?

re: NeoGirl on Context

You can use any ideas you wish…ideas can and should travel, be shared, and inspire other ideas. I would be honored if any ideas from me were included or mentioned in your work.

Whatever ideas inspire your initial directions…they will quickly become your own as you implement them.

Good luck and I luck forward to seeing what you come up with.

Regards,

Martin
