pause to briefly discuss some of the practicalities of work done with the OpenCog system currently implementing parts of the CogPrime architecture. OpenCog, the open-source software framework underlying the "OpenCogPrime" (currently partial) implementation of the CogPrime architecture, has been used for

cessful, this will provide an outstanding platform for ongoing AGI development, as well as a visually appealing and immediately meaningful demo for OpenCog. Specific, particularly simple tasks that are the focus of this project team's current work at time of writing include: • Watch another character

of emotions in other agents via their physical embodiment 5. Recognition of desires and intentions in other agents via their physical embodiment 6. Analogical and contextual inferences between self and other, regarding BDI and other as- pects 7. Attribute causes and meanings to other agents behaviors 8. A

the present work, it has also been used to control virtual agents in virtual worlds [GEA08]. Prototype work done during 2007-2008 involved using an OpenCog variant called the Open- PetBrain to control virtual dogs in a virtual world (see Figure 6.6 for a screenshot of an OpenPetBrain-controlled virtual d

level of capability will be achievable by simply interposing DeS- TIN (or some other system in its place) as a perception /action “black box” between OpenCog and a robot. Some preliminary experiments in this direction have already been carried out, con- necting the OpenPetBrain to a Nao robot using simpler

igence (or any other kind of highly powerful general intelligence), the creation of novel ideas will be paramount. New idea creation takes place in OpenCog via a variety of methods - e.g. inside MOSES which creates new program trees, PLN which creates new logical relationships, ECAN which creates new a

ical robot. Finally, perhaps the most interesting aspect of internal simulation is the generation of "vir- tual perceptions" from abstract concepts. Analogical reasoning may be used to generate virtual perceptions that were never actually perceived, and these may then be visualized. The need for "reality d
