Yes, but AI still runs on a physical computer. We know how an optimal computer looks like -- it's a cellular globally-asynchronous locally-coupled system. We're moving there, at both ends of design space (clusters and bare semiconductor), but it's pretty slow so far. > To that I say computational cost of cpu time, instructions executed and > resources will be important considerations of any configuration in AGI. I'm posting this stuff because there's a strong school in AI which is hardware agnostic, and thinks that it's all complicated algorithms all the way down. Other people (me included) think we're computationally starved, and will be for a long time. The future target hardware will not run today's codes with any efficiency, unless you design for it explicitly, today. -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org";>leitl</a> ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144 http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net ------- To unsubscribe, change your address, or temporarily deactivate your subscription, please go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
