[agi] SOTA

2006-10-18 Thread Peter Voss 
I'm often asked about state-of-the-art in AI, and would like to get some
opinions.

What do you regard, or what is generally regarded as SOTA in the various AI
aspects that may be, or may be seen to be relevant to AGI?

For example: 

- Comprehensive (common-sense) knowledge-bases and/or ontologies
- Inference engines, etc.
- Adaptive expert systems
- Question answering systems
- NLP components such as parsers, translators, grammar-checkers
- Interactive robotics systems (sensing/ actuation) - physical or virtual
- Vision, voice, pattern recognition, etc.
- Interactive learning systems
- Integrated intelligent systems
... whatever ...

I'm looking for the best functionality -- irrespective of proprietary,
open-source, or academic.



Peter

[agi] Discussion group meeting at Kifune Restaurant in LA on AI

2006-10-18 Thread justin corwin 

As some of you may know, we have a reoccuring discussion group at
Kifune, a local japanese restaurant in Marina del Rey. Every few times
we meet I like to mention it on the wider discussion groups, but we
have an announcement list yahoogroup that sends updates on each
meeting.

The attendees are primarily employees, associates, and friends of a2i2
in general and Peter Voss in particular.

The group centers around general transhumanism officially, but we tend
to AI and real current efforts and events as they happen. We
occasionally have discussion topics and guests of expertise.

Here is the event announcement that went out today:
--
Hello Friends,

We're going to have another Kifune discussion group, at which we'll
discuss the recent happenings at the AGI Workshops Novamente put on,
the Alcor Conference, and a few new companies and initiatives in our
field of AI.

If you can make it, we'd enjoy your company. RSVP if you can.

PS. The usual details are at:

about future meetings, just contact me.
