I wouldn't mind helping sculpt an AI project, just to see what the many brains of this EUPHORIA group can do. I'm thinking we'd need to start with a worm, though. A worm is probably all instinct, so it would give us a good foundation on composing the instinct of a more advanced intelligence. Or maybe not. :) Here's what our basis could be: What We Need ---------------------- Virtual Environment Virtual Worm with Sensory Functions (let's start him off with smell and touch) and Instinctual Functions (i.e., survival). Let me ask though... If we created an artificially intelligent worm, would it eventually learn enough to break out of its mold and become a super genius worm? Let's find out... :) ----- Original Message ----- From: <dubetyrant at hotmail.com> To: "EUforum" <EUforum at topica.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 9:11 AM Subject: The A.I. Project Hi all, This is such an interesting topic I have to put my 2 cents in. Just to address the intelligence part of artificial intelligence. Having all of the bodies physiological systems in place,I think I would approach the brain's programming in two parts,one part to control the body's physiology and the other to create A CONSCIOUSNESS. Like a neural net,our thoughts are all somehow relevant to each other,creating kind of a steady stream of related thoughts that continue from one to the next throughout our entire waking lives, which in effect is what psychologists call our consciousness. With each new peice of information(variable),our consciousness seeks to find that new peice of information's relevance to what we already know. Even in cases of insanity,the subjects thoughts have been proven to relate to one another,they dont just come from a random place in the dark subconscious. So I would establish a programmed loop of thoughts that relate to each other and have one lead to the next. A small loop to begin with,perhaps with some of the a.i's basic drives.Then,as it learns new things,I would first have the a.i sort it's relevance,then insert it somewhere in the loop of its own consciousness. I would think that we would also have to establish an environment for the a.i.Each person is a product of their environment,upbringing and experience. So where does Darius exist,does it have an environment and how would that affect the stream of its consciousness? Anyway, I've got programming diagrams and notes on things like emotion and expression if anyones interested in this approach. We should continue this thread,perhaps all contribute to Darius,or start from scratch.A euphoria community a.i. project.What would you all think of this? Or generally speaking,what would the community think of any kind of group project? I think any organized project that consists of more than say ten people in collaboration would be a feat in itself. Most decent software today is the result of a good team. We should get organized,do something...really create something big...like an a.i. project!!
