Common sense tells us that if we were born with no sensory organs -- at all -- then we would be unlikely to develop a normal, healthy, fully-capable mind. The idea that perception is a necessary prerequisite for thought and intelligence has been at the center of epistemology for centuries. In the 1600s René Descartes, thinking about thinking, and about what reality really is, as well as his own place and existence in it, came up with the phrase text/html 2024-04-29T13:33:28+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://cadia.ru.is/wiki/public:t720-atai-2012:emergence?rev=1714397608&do=diff course notes Self-Organization & Emergence What is Self-Organization?

AGI Requirements Before we can answer the question “How do we build an intelligent system?” we must make a fairly big decision: We must decide how high we are aiming. It stands to reason that someone planning to build a small shed in their back yard will have a very different day acquiring materials than someone who is preparing to build a skyscraper. In one case a visit to the lumber yard is all that is needed; in the latter case calls to architects, contractors, city offici… text/html 2024-04-29T13:33:28+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://cadia.ru.is/wiki/public:t720-atai-2012:selfrepresentation?rev=1714397608&do=diff Course Notes Body, Mind, and Self-Representation The NASA space probe Deep Space One (DS1) is one of history's more interesting AI stories.

What is Intelligence? It seems like such a very easy question to answer, but people frequently argue about what intelligence is.

What is General Machine Intelligence? One of the most highly developed skills in contemporary Western civilization is dissection: the split-up of problems into their smallest possible components. We are good at it. So good, we often forget to put the pieces back together again. - Alvin Toffler [as cited in Prigogine & Stengers, Order Out of Chaos, W. Heineman ltd., UK, 1984]
