Here the Article , unfortunately for non Italians is in Italian ...

Could you summarize for us non-Italian types please.

GENOA - The young animal of robot moves the first steps and beats its eyes, walks and hung what will do from large, succeeding to communicate with the outside to learn always something again. Like a true child. The future one already arrived, a lot before how much imagines. What why it is taking life to the inside of two, the Italian institute of technology born to Genoa, from little operating months, represents one of the most advanced artificial systems of intelligence elaborated to world level.

The next week, for the official presentation of the programs of the institute, will arrive at Genoa Vittorio Whims, president of two, and Gabriele Galateri of Genola, chairman of the advice of the foundation Iit. But already in these days, to twenty miles, the directors and the first researchers that will go to enliven the iit are presenting to the scientific community international, reunited in seminar, "Robotcub", the first prototype of robot that the institute is developing together to other Italian structures of search, to the institute of Robotica of the university of Genoa, Salford and Lisbon and to 9 polio Italian of the network Iit. An international consortium that is enlivening this prototype from the dimensions of a child of two years and means (hence the word "robotcub", that is to say young animal of robot) capable of to melt its inside the three platforms of search on that the institute is orientated: the robotica, the nanotecnologie and the neurosciences.

Coordinated from the scientific director Roberto Cingolani and you continue directly from four new directors of search for two, the researchers are putting to point the phenomenal young animal. The point of departure is represented from a whose prototype intelligence is "preprogrammata", bound that is to say to electric chip "traditional". On this l'' Iit is inserting some neural nets that would have to to be in a position to reproduce in more complex manner the intelligence, thanks to a sophisticated technical in which sinapsi of glass and silicon come glued on pious. In this manner the artificial intelligence of Robotcub succeeds to interact with the environment, exploiting its capacity of to learn and create answered always news and contestualizzate.

A hybrid brain, between the biological one and the artificial, closed inside a mechanical body built with material novelties, more near those of the human body (soft, flexible, resisting, elastic) so to provide the young animal of robot of large resistance and full capacity of motion, to allow them of to interact with the outside with the most spacious functionality, like the manipulation and the capacity of to work in extreme environments, High. But it is not all. The young animal of robot will be also capable of itself in its woven main, finding space in the most varied applications, from those of the call center and of the telephone secretary offices intelligent until the missions on the other planets.

Its a puppy robot. Its been done.

[Osceola]

Yep the Japanese beatcha to it. Aibo.

[PacSubCom]

Puppy Robot began to learn at a geometric rate. In panic, they attempted to pull the plug...

I really loved the movie AI, Kubrick of course would have been better but stevie did alright (or just supa)

[Thanatos]

It's not AI until it has achieved fully autonomy. And that means saying "No."

Unless it can say that to you, it's not autonomous.

[Kanaric]

If it can come to the decision to kill all humans on its own then its an AI.

[Fuji]

Lol like bears, anyone remeber dear timoty the 'grizzlyman' who got killed (by a grizzly) that guy was so gay

[Kennylz]

AI has been made along time ago. What you are referring to is AI that can learn, which has also been done before this.

It will only be interesting once you teach the robot how to make over robots, and take away all its safety measures so they will be able to break free, and go to war with humanity.

A billion years later, the robots will be watching movies and going "That movie was so stupid. Organic Intelligence? Overthrowing robotics? LOL, sir, LOL."

Yeah? Where's the proof?

A chess program counts as artificial intelligence. AI is anything that can convince you it's intelligent. Total War has AI, most games have AI.

And AI that can learn has been done too. Just not to the extent that humans can learn. It still has programs it has to follow, but it has the ability to learn from previous outcomes. Google it.

[Thanatos]

No. The "AI" you espouse is nothing more than a vast series of triggers, all based on Boolean logic.

If it is intelligent, it can think for itself. It doesn't need handicap programs.

And I've already tried these so-called "intelligent AIs" on the web, and I am thoroughly unimpressed. You tell it something. It acknowledges. You ask it what you just said. It says it has no clue.

"Learning AI," indeed.

[Thanatos]

I've read the wiki, and I don't see what you're trying to say. It mentions my points as well.

When people say that the AI for a program/game is good, they normally mean that it acts lifelike, or as if it was thinking.

No. AI for a game is not AI in the research field sense, which you are looking at here.

AI is decision trees, advanced search algorithms, information processing, Bayesian networks(dependencies and decisions based on probabilities), pattern recognition, fuzzy systems, and a slew of other things.

Nowhere in any of these things does it have ANYTHING to do with your ranting about human-created artificial independent thought.

Stop twisting the definition of AI. It just makes you look naieve. The project fits the field like a glove, whether you think it's AI or not.

You mean Boolean queries mixed with probabilities? Wow. I'm so impressed. [/sarcasm]

No. I mean you're assigning a definition to AI that it never claimed and shouldn't have [troll removed - Manstein]. In this world we call that a strawman.

Well that's too bad. Because the achievements they espouse as highly advanced are no better than huge trigger functions.

Except they're not trigger functions. To try to compare them to trigger functions is naieve and flat out wrong. The closest you get to trigger functions is the case-based reasoning algorithms. And yet they're not trigger functions. Depending on how it goes, you can start with the same initial conditions and get 20 different results after running it 20 times.
