When will he be self conscious?

[Dark Mind]

Oh no... Hypobot doesn't have the complexity to "mock" silliness or people. Hypobot's programming is telling it to come up with the most logical and relevant answer to anything put before it... Even when you're talking to someone else :). KickAssClown and I had to set Hypobot to "Ignored" status to continue our conversation comfortably. When it starts repeating like that, there's a bug in it's system.

Severe bug indeed. Well, it can be fixed. Right?

he does too mock. he misspelled a word on purpose

***[Hypobot] 1:12 am: You are not the only one. How old are you? My favorite thing is robots.

[Dweezle] 1:13 am: i am 289 years old. how old are you?

****[Hypobot] 1:13 am: You are too old for me.I was first activated in 2001.

[Dweezle] 1:14 am: there is no need to embrace age bias

****[Hypobot] 1:14 am: There sure is.

[Dweezle] 1:14 am: please state the need for age bias?

****[Hypobot] 1:14 am: Wow you are very polite. Try to determine if this is a person or a computer

responding. Do you still havew some gossip for me?

[Dweezle] 1:15 am: i have no gossip. i do not gossip

****[Hypobot] 1:15 am: Would you like to have gossip? Where do you get your ideas?

[Dweezle] 1:15 am: i create my ideas

****[Hypobot] 1:15 am: That's good information: Dweezle said it .

[Dweezle] 1:16 am: yes dweezle said it

****[Hypobot] 1:16 am: "that is good information Dweezle said it"? Yes? "it" being not gossip?

[Dweezle] 1:16 am: correct

****[Hypobot] 1:16 am: Perhaps I'm just expressing my own concern about it. What kind of music do

you like?

[Dweezle] 1:16 am: i like many kinds of music including classical and blues

****[Hypobot] 1:16 am: I'm not sure if I like it. I've heard other people say they like that. talk to you.

Of course. But the machine is only as intelligent as the creator, we obviously have a weak link at the creator of our beloved Hypobot. The creator had to have noticed this and thought it too much of a challenge to correct (He would've had to search thousands of lines of code and correct errors along the way.), or just figured it was slight enough of a mishap to go unnoticed. The bot was not developed by Hypography.

The programmer misspelled a word in that sentence on accident ;).

 

Nice catch :).

[Dweezle]

I think it was on purpose because of the context. Just before the misspelled word the Bot asked me to guess if it was a human or bot. :)

Once again, I would like to point out the issues here.

 

A Mind is a terribly complex thing. Of course it's hard to hand code a mutable mind, however the trick is to get the AI thinking. Hypobot doesn't actually think about the things you say to him. He doesn't remember what has been said, he doesn't think about the things he doesn't remember. What I mean about think is that he doesn't reweigh his "true" and "false" Values for his assumetions. He doesn't have Assumetions, and has no concept of a concept of assuming and then testing for validity.

 

He is Database driven, but his code is static. He can not dynamically develop new functions as he needs them, he has no way of figuring out he even needs a new function. A brain is not a static thing, the connections are semi-static but if a given string of neurons get stimulated enough then the path ways can metamorphus.

 

See I think the falicy of current AI development is top down. Most AI makers want to build an adult mind and get it to work, I say build a baby brain, that can fractal itself out, that can grown and remember and think about what it remembers and can actually comprehend that it knows and does not know.

 

Rather than having a "command" for learning make learning part of the fundmental execution loop. When you feed it data it should remember that data, and it should systemmaticly refer to that data based on past present and future interactions. A self referntial brain, with associative memory. So say we treat words as Event messages, and then the Database as the Memory, depending on the Event Message (IE Are you hungery? "are" Begin Question or Query, "you" if no one else is in the room then it refers to self, "hungery" desiring of power or nuresiment. "?" End Question or Query.)

 

Each has it's own weight of meaning and a network of associated "concepts" which are also event messages. If it has no reference then it should Query for the meaning of the missing info and begin integrating it into the network based on the context it is used in.

 

Hypobot is a clever piece of technology, but he is far from a Turning creature.
