Everyone has heard about the water analogy for electrical operation. I have
a mechanical analogy for neural operation that just might be solid enough
to compute at least some characteristics optimally.
No, I am NOT proposing building mechanical contraptions, just using the
concept to compute
Have you guys talked to the army's artificial intelligence chat bot yet?

nothing really special other than the voice sounds really natural..

One tangential comment.
You're still thinking linearly. Machines are linear chains of parts.
Cause-and-effect thinking made flesh/metal.
With organisms, however you have whole webs of parts acting more or less
simultaneously.
We will probably need to bring that organic thinking/framework -

Funny you should mention that. Ross Ashby actually built such a device in 1948
called a homeostat (

David,
I tend to think of probability theory and statistics as different things.
I'd agree that statistics is not enough for AGI, but in contrast I think
probability theory is a pretty good foundation. Bayesianism to me provides a
sound way of integrating the elegance/utility tradeoff of
These video/rendered chatbots have huge potential and will be taken in many
different directions.
They are gradually over time approaching a p-zombie-esque situation.
They add multi-modal communication - body/facial language/expression and
prosody. So even if the text alone is not too good
Hi,
I pretty much always think of a NN as a physical device.
I think the first binary computer was dreamt up with balls going through
the system with ball representing 1's and 0's. The idea was written down
but never built.
Jamming balls that give way at a certain point is the same as using .
Hi,
I'm interested in combining the simplest, most derivable operations
( eg operations that cannot be defined by other operations) for creating
seed AGI's. The simplest operations combined in a multitude ways can
form extremely complex patterns, but the underlying logic may be
simple.
I wonder
