Project Status: Pre-LaunchThis distributed computing project is part of a larger project that is reverse engineering the brain in order to build a large scale artificial intelligence system. The first of its kind. Because we are a very small company (2 people) that is tackling an enormous challenge, we are asking the public at large to get involved by donating computer time. We will also pursue an alternative path, through commercialization, in order to be able to support and accelerate its development.Benefits To The Society: Exceptional
We have decided to use the BOINC distributed computing framework for computing intensive tasks. We expect to relaunch the program before September 1st, 2007 on Linux and Windows platforms.
C'est dommage, j'aurais bien aimer pouvoir participer à la programmation d'une AI C'est dommage que ça soit à un but lucratif.
Why isn't this project entirely public?The software development portion of the project can probably be done almost in its entirety with the help of the public at large. The neuroscience portion can not. We also need to continue the research and involve other researchers and research groups that can contribute to our project and its final goal. That requires funding and commercialization is the only acceptable way for us to do that.Why isn't this project entirely commercial?This project stands out as one of the most challenging tasks that is currently faced by the humanity. It requires a lot of resources, both financial and human resources. Our conservative estimates places the number of people required to be involved, in the thousands. Very few companies have the expertise, research results, and resources to work on such a task. Once the system will increase its capabilities it will take over some development tasks as well. From that point on, we expect the number of people required to help to drop significantly. Nevertheless it is still a long way to go.
tu pourras toujours les aider... d'une part par le calcul, et d'autre part à les aider à revendre leur produit...
vous pouvez toujours y mettre 0.1% histoire de dire que vous y étiez :whistle:
