Today's analogy: "...comparing BRAIN to the Apollo moon shot," So now it's just like the Apollo moon shot. Last month the running analogy was that the BRAIN project was going to be just like mapping the genome.
I guess the BRAIN initiative is a good idea, but would be nice to get some of that $100 million sent my way, and stop comparing it to other projects. Figuring out the roots of consciousness and thinking is no moon shot nor a genome project. http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/09/20/brain-science-turns-to-skepticism-as-neurosciences-funding-and-influence-grows-so-do-doubts-over-its-hype/ ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
