Hi All, AGIRI (the Artificial General Intelligence Research Institute) is
pleased
to launch a new drive to raise $80,000 dedicated to pure AGI research
with a specific goal: to complete the next major milestone of Novamente
development by the end of 2005. Milestone M10, shown in the Novamente Development Roadmap, is the deployment of a Novamente system specialized to control an embodied agent, interacting linguistically and "physically" with other agents and objects in a simulated world. For more information on the project, see the AGI-SIM Development Plan. AGIRI is also seeking capable programmers, for both volunteer and paid positions. We believe that upon completion of the AGI-SIM project, AGIRI will be well-poised to raise the larger-dollar research funding needed to move Novamente quickly toward its longer-term AGI goals. The AGI-SIM application of Novamente may also open up new commercial possibilities, for instance in the area of partnerships with firms developing mobile robotics technology.For more information about Novamente, see the new concise but deep single-page description located at the AGIRI home page, and the eight-page technical paper at Novamente: An Integrative Architecture for General Intelligence. A new series of books that will describe Novamente's conceptual and technical under-pinnings in great detail is due for publication in 2005. Read more about fundraising at AGIRI on the contributions page.
