Hi all,
About modelling the brain.
OK, suppose you have enough CPU's to model a human brain. The
question remains: how do you train that brain? I mean, it takes us a
few years just to start speaking. Moreover, you need a body and an
environment to develop cognition... even if this virtual brain would
be controlling a real robot, you really need to have real time
interaction to be able to deal with OUR environment... so I see this
still VEEEEERY far...
Best regards,
