Hi, I expanded a previous blog entry of mine on hypercomputation and AGI into a conference paper on the topic ... here is a rough draft, on which I'd appreciate commentary from anyone who's knowledgeable on the subject:
http://goertzel.org/papers/CognitiveInformaticsHypercomputationPaper.pdf This is a theoretical rather than practical paper, although it does attempt to explore some of the practical implications as well -- e.g., in the hypothesis that intelligence does require hypercomputation, how might one go about creating AGI? I come to a somewhat surprising conclusion, which is that -- even if intelligence fundamentally requires hypercomputation -- it could still be possible to create an AI via making Turing computer programs ... it just wouldn't be possible to do this in a manner guided entirely by science; one would need to use some other sort of guidance too, such as chance, imitation or intuition... -- Ben G -- Ben Goertzel, PhD CEO, Novamente LLC and Biomind LLC Director of Research, SIAI b...@goertzel.org "I intend to live forever, or die trying." -- Groucho Marx ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=123753653-47f84b Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
