AI WINTER IS OFFICIALLY OVER

Move the fuck over Mentifex, AI hobbyist are raising money to attempt the most ambitious project ever create, the simulation of an entire worm.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/openworm/openworm-a-digital-organism-in-your-browser?ref=category
This project is simulating an entire 302 neurons and for only $249 you -- yes YOU -- can have your name assigned to one!

Don't think this is some fly-by-night bullshit scam aiming to make $120,000 and get out quick either, there are a full nine people on this project ready to make it a success. No niggers on it though.

And as a statement to the sheer complexity of this feat,

building a WormSim from source is a complex operation that requires advanced engineering skills

That's right, [u][b]advanced engineering skills[/b][/u] just to [i]run `./configure && make && make install' That must be one fucking monster of a project. Luck for you retards

The WormSims created and brought to you by this campaign will run on a rather advanced cloud infrastructure and will be easily available in your browser without requiring any programming skills.

How magnanimous.

But is it really intelligent? YES[i]![/i]

The C. elegans worm can avoid predators, seek food, and learn in the wild and in the lab! So yes, it’s no Lieutenant Commander Data yet, but we must crawl before we can walk... and it’s orders of magnitude more intelligent than your robot vacuum cleaner ;)

Beam me the fuck up, Scotty, cuz' this worm is about to assfuck the entire Earth. Singularity, here we cum!

Is that really it? I didn't even waste money on this and I'm annoyed. They could have at least animated it and made a perceptron or something.
