You're right, I didn't introduce myself properly! I mentioned my plans in response to one of the previous conversations but it was the wrong place so it got lost. Let's start again in the right way:
Hello everyone, I'm Michele Thiella from Italy (Padua). I am about to graduate in Computer Engineering at the University of Padua. I have always been passionate about artificial intelligence and, more generally, about everything that has not yet been invented/discovered/solved. About 6 months ago I chose the path for my master's thesis: AGI. I started reading around until I got to you and I was blown away. I presented your work (roughly) to my Thesis Supervisors, trying to get approval for a thesis involving OpenCog. And here we are. For my thesis the proposal would be to use OpenCog to do TAMP. More precisely, using a simplified version of Sophia's architecture, switching Blender with Ros and Sophia with a much simpler robot. Leaving out the emotional sphere of the robot and aiming at the resolution of objectives, perhaps achieving cooperation between robots through a single knowledge base. Or at least that was the idea. I don't think I explained it the way I wanted but I hope it goes well. Il giorno sabato 20 marzo 2021 alle 20:04:05 UTC+1 linas ha scritto: > So, out of curiosity, what are you using OpenCog for?
