Re: [agi] Re: French startup saying they found AGI, what do you think ?

Looks like a scam to me as they seem to be bare bones with content but claim they can build it with $350,000 and 9 months time. Basically asking for money and I don't see really any evidence or papers they are putting forth to support their viewpoint. On Tue, Sep 4, 2018 at 11:52 AM

Re: [agi] Blockchainifying Conscious Awareness

So the moral of the story is that a blockchain is not necessary for that use case, and adds unnecessary constraints... I'm hopeful about the sharding and sidechains but probably not as optimistic as some. On Sun, Jun 17, 2018 at 1:54 AM, wrote: > They got the data! And they got a "distributed

Re: [agi] The Singularity Forum

The Singularity analogy was never intended to imply infinite power. Rather it represents a point at which understanding and predictability breaks down and becomes impossible. On Jun 14, 2018 3:59 PM, "Matt Mahoney via AGI" wrote: > Vinge: when humans produce superhuman AI then so can it, only
