Pei Thanks for the link.
However, in my opinion this progress is misleading in that a simple geometric algorithm is likely used to solve the highly specialized puzzles, then the robot executes a plan to illustrate the solution. Because the robot software has been tailored to solve one particular mathematical part of an IQ test, it does not really suggest anything new. And regarding robots, I far prefer the work in navigation done by Hans Moravec at CMU, the walking humanoid robots in Japan, and the robot soccer (football) competition. These technologies will become excellent peripherals for AGI unless of course the robot folks develop AGI first. -Steve On Wed, 22 Jan 2003, Pei Wang wrote: > "In the quest to create a machine that will outsmart the most intelligent > human, Selmer Bringsjord has developed the first-known robot capable of > passing part of a standard IQ test.
