 | | Hang time in Tokyo
|

I just wanted to say publicly thanks to the members of EJLTC that so warmly welcomed me in Tokyo this week. I had a great time at the LEGO store and afterwards at a 3 hour dinner and show & tell. We all didn't speak the same language on one level (...) (20 years ago, 6-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)

Do you care to put forth an alternate definition of intelligence? What Turing did, IMSHO, is simply make the point concrete that intelligence is what intelligence does. Navel-gazing focus on the 'qualia' of the 'personal experience' of intelligence (...) (20 years ago, 6-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics)

Steve, I agree, the Turing test is not up to date, and even in its time did not indicate intelligence accurately, though I would go so far as to say that those intelligent programs that might pass the Turing test won't pass the test of demonstrating (...)

That's a really impressive MOC! I really like the top engine, and I was wondering why you didn't use the same for the side pods? This MOC has a good retro vibe, it looks like what could be hoped for in the 60s. Cheers, JP. (20 years ago, 6-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
