http://kostaki89y.immensepots.com/ A coherent view of the current state of science, technology, art and philosophy es http://kostaki89y.immensepots.com/2009/04/07/polyworld-using-evolution-to-design-artificial-intelligence.html This presentation is about a potential shortcut to artificial intelligence by trading mind-design on behalf of world-design using artificial evolution. Evolutionary algorithms are a pump on behalf of turning CPU cycles into brain designs. With exponentially increasing CPU cycles while our understanding of intelligence is an estimated a flat-line, the evolutionary route to AI is a centerpiece of an estimated all Kurzweilian singularity scenarios. This talk introduces the Polyworld artificial life simulator as well as results from our ongoing attempt to evolve artificial intelligence as well as further the Singularity. Polyworld is the brain child of Apple Computer Distinguished Scientist Larry Yaeger, who remains the primary developer of Polyworld: http://www.beanblossom.in.us/larryy/P… Tue, 07 Apr 2009 07:23:34 -0400 kostaki89y
