Training Computers to Understand the Human Brain
« on: October 11, 2012, 09:06:26 pm »
I thought this was interesting, pointing in the direction of modelling a computer to the human brain to achieve better Ai.

As we all thought really, and more evidence that it works.

Understanding how the human brain categorizes information through signs and language is a key part of developing computers that can 'think' and 'see' in the same way as humans.

Watson uses 30-40 watts ! LOL . .. A quick Google brought me to  http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/80beats/2011/02/17/what-is-champion-ibms-watson-seals-its-jeopardy-victory/

Watson has 90 Power 750 Express servers.
Each of the Power 750 Express servers consume a maximum of 1,949 watts, or 175kw for the whole computer,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watson_%28computer%29

"Watson is made up of a cluster of ninety IBM Power 750 servers (plus additional I/O, network and cluster controller nodes in 10 racks) with a total of 2880 POWER7 processor cores and 16 Terabytes of RAM. "

documentation for the power 750 servers --> http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpapers/pdfs/redp4638.pdf

1950 watts per server.    30-40 watts lol

So, 1950 x 90 = 175.5 kW , so 175.5 kW / 0.020 kW (human) = 8,775 times the power consumption of a human 'meat ware' :)
