Human "artificial" intelligence

28 July 2007 - 12:34am — ocrampal

This week I attended the AAAI (Artificial Intelligence) conference in Vancouver.

I was a bit disappointed because I did not find much Artificial Intelligence, but rather a lot of Human Intelligence applied to solve specific problems with the aid of computers. I found a lot of mathematics and logic and a top down approach to task solving, but very little talk about bottom up Artificial Intelligence.

Artificial intelligence

I am in Vancouver at a conference on artificial intelligence. Right now I am part of a workshop about Evaluating Architectures for Intelligence.

There is very little agreement on the subject, which in a way confirms the fact that AI has still a long way to go to create a framework for intelligence. Very interesting stuff ...

Interviewed by Blognation

Amanda Lorenzani interviewed me for Blognation, a new site similar to Techcrunch but focused on European start-ups.

Europe needs sites like Blognation, otherwise European start-ups, even if they offer an interesting product or service, would not have the same spot light as Silicon Valley start-ups.

I am spending a few days in NYC, visiting old friends and enjoying NY City life. Saturday I'll be flying to Vancouver; never been there, looking forward to get there.

Shel Israel asked me to answer to some questions.

The future

I know it, yet I keep making the same mistake.

I have my vision of the future; it's obviously a partial one, but I know it is a plausible one. And yet I keep trying to talk to friends who are not technologists and I try to explain to them this vision; it takes a lot of time and effort, but at the end of the day they are not convinced :-(

So why do I do it? Maybe because I need to be reassured that the vision is correct, but I keep looking in the wrong direction, probably.
