oth badly suited for creating AGI The case against academia as a place to get AGI built was recently articulated by my friend (the AGI researcher) Nick Cassimatis in the following interview http://www.forbes.com/sitesimarkchangizi/2012/11/09/for-siris-new- rompetitor-skyphrasc-academia-isnt-big-enough-for-ai/
N, and will never be more than a perceptual cortex. Another option is open-source development, like the way Linux was built We're trying this with OpenCog (http://opencog.org). But building AGI requires people with much more specialized expertise than building a "mere" computer operating system like L
e in Hong Kong that pay me money (not a lot, but enough to let me pay my kids' college tuition in the US, etc.). These other projects involve using OpenCog's machine learning software to analyze genetics data, and Hong Kong stock market data. But I go to the OpenCog AGI lab for a few hours every day, a
a small team working closely with me in a single location. Another option is that someone like Jeffrey Epstein, decides to fund an AGi project like OpenCog. So, summing up....
