RE: [agi] Google as a strong AI

[Ben Goertzel]

Well, the point of distinguishing "artificial general intelligence" from "narrow AI" is the observation that it seems to be fairly easy to create specialized software systems capable of emulating particular functionalities commonly labeled "intelligence", without building any kind of reflective, abstracting, general-intelligence capability into the software.   Google exemplifies this fairly well.  It's narrow AI.    -- Ben -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Ophir Shai Sent: Monday, March 14, 2005 5:22 AM To: agi@v2.listbox.com Subject: RE: [agi] Google as a strong AI Google Sets is able to find a common match between 2 words, and find additional words in the sequence. This is certainly a measurement for intelligence (which is done in psychometric tests).

Ok, let's see: 1) Google reads Natural Language. Every natural language. Google write Natural Language. 2) Google constantly learns. Learning affects Google behavior. 3) Google knows words and phrases. Google distinguishes between usual and unusual (wrong/misspelled/...) words. 4) Google's memory is implemented in form of dynamic Neural Net. 5) Google has huge memory. Now, it's your turn: what program is a better implementation of strong AI than Google?
