Celestial Intellect Cybernetics

Examachine is an AGI Platform that features exa-scale universal machine learning beyond human-level and it is developed by Celestial Intellect Cybernetics.

UMass Amherst computer scientist leads the way to the next revolution in artificial intelligence

UMass Amherst computer scientist leads the way to the next revolution in artificial intelligence. It’s striking how somebody who has no understanding of set theory or theory of computation can claim such things. 2^aleph_0, eh? What flamboyance. Beware this University

Godseed: benevolent or malevolent?

Introduction One of the most interesting questions we’ve ever pondered on the ai-philosophy mailing list was how you would build an “angelic” autonomous AI. Would it be possible to make some kind of angel’s mind that, by design, achieves only

What is it like to be an upload?

Introduction The nature of experience is one of those deep philosophical questions which philosophers and scientists alike have not been able to reach a consensus on. In this article, I review a transhumanist variant of a basic question of subjectivity.

My paper titled “A COMPROMISE BETWEEN REDUCTIONISM AND NON-REDUCTIONISM””

Mp paper titled “A compromise between reductionism and non-reductionism”, argues against extreme non-reductionism such as predicate dualism. This was published in the book “WORLDVIEWS, SCIENCE AND US Philosophy and Complexity“. The issue of irreducibility is interpreted from the perspective of algorithmic information

Teramachine is operational

Teramachine is the second milestone of the examachine research program. It features teraflop-scale incremental machine learning, therefore it embodies an integrated long-term memory which works in black-box fashion from the user’s point of view. I can really feel this is

Teramachine inverting functions

Teramachine marches on towards primary-school student level. Function inversion (in the mathematical sense) with one example (assuming one-shot learning) is implemented like this in the current code, to give you a flavor of how neat O’Caml code can look: let

Narrow AI is not AI (And AGI is just computer science!)

I have maintained for ages that terminological and polemical discussions are fruitless and therefore fit for fools. However, every now and then we are being forced into such trivial controversy. I will reminisce an old foe from the glorious days

An extensive post on translating between OCaml Scheme and Haskell

translating between OCaml Scheme and Haskell. Ah, I just stumbled on this page while searching for what people use for a composition operator in O’Caml. It gives a comprehensive guide to translating among these languages.

Pei Wang on the Path to Artificial General Intelligence

Pei Wang on the Path to Artificial General Intelligence. Ben Goertzel interviews Pei Wang. The interview does contain some interesting questions. It sounds as if Ben believes in a kind of “embodied inteligence”. However, it also seems to me that

Autonomous AI: reptile, human or better?

Presently, most researchers assume that a general-purpose human-level or beyond AI system must be autonomous. This is mostly due to AIMA’s agent designs and Hutter’s version of intelligence definitions that emphasize agent design. That is to say, an agent thinks
