A little joy, a little sorrow. — Somewhere nested in the goal of Human Level Intelligence and/or AGI there’s emotions, specifically human emotions that future AIs might need to recreate or at least understand, so here we will be taking a look at emotions and how they could be implemented in AIs if at all. — —…

What’s out there for us to see? — I originally wanted to make this a post about making Real Time Neural Network Visualizations which is what I need for my current projects but I think the topic is interesting enough to have an overview on the existing Artificial Neural Network Visualizations out there ( regardless of the real…

Revisiting Turings views on AIs — Alan Turing is widely considered one of the fathers of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence yet probably better known for his contributions to decoding encrypted messages during world war II. Today we’ll take a look at one of his papers ( Intelligent Machinery ) to see how things have aged…

What is it ? Can it be emulated ? — When you look at the above abstract painting what do you see ? A snowy mountain ? A coastal scene or something else ? Abstraction is one of the big elements we associate with intelligence , the term itself is so ingrained in language and use that we all sort…

Imagine a smarter species or AI. — Like many writers, neuroscientists, philosophers and AI folks dealing with intelligence I sometimes wonder what would a higher Intelligence be like and that is what we will be talking about, along the way we will also start untangling what Intelligence is, something useful if we want to eventually recreate it…

Glue and substrate for learning and cognition — An academic course on AGI is probably decades away but when it is finally written I bet there will be a chapter devoted to associations which as we will see are the foundation of complex behavior be it artificial or biological, come along as we take a look and maybe…
