Title: Greetings from Germany
Post by: Sky on June 16, 2019, 05:23:52 pm: New guy reporting in.

Work in IT professionally but nothing with AI. That I do for fun. Here for exchange of ideas, daydreaming and possibly collaboration.

For now I'm collecting information about alternatives to NEAT and it's spin-offs.

Wish ya all a lovely Sunday.

Post by: AndyGoode on June 16, 2019, 06:01:20 pm: What do you mean by "NEAT"? Do you mean the "lightweight, semantic grid framework built with Bourbon (CSS)"?

Anyway, welcome. It sounds like your background will fit in very well here.

Almost! AKA "NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies".

Thanks for the warm welcome. ;)

OK, so it *is* a genetic algorithm. I'd never heard of it before.

Post by: goaty on June 17, 2019, 03:54:37 am: I think there is an alternative to using mutation to train nets, as in training them symbolicly, building a symbolic model unsupervised, instead of just evolution, you cant learn it anywhere because its too new (no-one is doing It yet)... but im just mentioning it.

Post by: Sky on June 18, 2019, 11:38:08 pm: This probably isn't the right place for tech support, but is there a trick to get the signature to update? i'd like to put some recent project info / links there but it doesn't seem to be working. Tried on Chrome & Firefox. Any ideas?

Post by: Freddy on June 18, 2019, 11:45:58 pm: Signatures are restricted on new accounts for a while. You are welcome to post links and preferably some details about them in the General Project Discussion (https://aidreams.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=35.0) section in the meantime.

Post by: Burkart on July 02, 2019, 10:19:54 pm: Hi Sky, hi everybody,

Here are more greetings from Germany (near Hamburg)!

I am a great fan of ideas towards strong AI with symbolic AI, and hope to have nice discussions (and infos) here.

Post by: HS on July 02, 2019, 10:38:17 pm: Hey Burkart! The more the merrier. We haven't quite managed to create strong AI by ourselves. So please give us all your ideas. ;)

Title: Re: Greetings from Germany
Post by: Burkart on July 03, 2019, 06:09:57 am: Thank you, Freddy and Hopefully Something.

I am going to share my ideas.
Shall I start a knew post I "General AI Discussion" or "Future of AI"?
Or does a post exist about (symbolic) approaches towards strong AI?

Some points from me here shortly:
- Strong AI understands
- Strong AI learns
- Strong AI has goals
- Strong AI acts in a (model) world
- Strong AI communicates
- ...

Have a nice day
Burkart

Post by: LOCKSUIT on July 03, 2019, 07:05:27 am: I would say start a new thread just for you. We do have many of those threads, but we want to hear from you. Go ahead and create and upgrade a full theory, don't even wait, go all out haha!

Either:
"General AI Discussion" or "Future of AI"
However in general the General is more , general, while future is more a news-like area but if you got new news then, may fit!
