What is your favourite cognitive model?

Name: Anonymous 2014-05-08 1:56

Douglas Hofstadter's Copycat cognitive model will be the basis of sentient AI. That is why the guy who used it to write a solver for Bongard problems took it down, fearing it's infinite power.

Hello there. How are you doing?

Let's see how the facts pertain to the reality of the situation.

.

ISSUE THE FIRST
======================================================

"Douglas Hofstadter's Copycat cognitive model will be the basis of sentient AI. That is why the guy who used it to write a solver for Bongard problems took it down, fearing it's infinite power." ------- Full Paragraph 1 of Original Post regarding "What is your favourite cognitive model?" by "Anonymous" 2014-05-08 03:56

======================================================

(1). All assertions are by definition baseless and your assertion of the non-fantasy possibility of "sentient AI." is a most baseless one.

(2). This cognitive model is what it is and that is an interesting mind-toy (not cognitive-toy ;) ). It has no possibility in the fantasy-possibility of the making of the fantasy of *simulating the human mind* a reality. This is due to many reasons that I may or may not explain later depending on your response.

(3). I think you are in fact seeing what isn't really there in the actions of the "guy" who most likely was playing a little joke or took it down for a technical reason. "infinite power"? Surely you're jesting.

1) I exaggerate for effect. This is the internet.
2) Agreed, to me it is an interesting mind-toy as well.
3) Looking at the internet archive, it appears there was never a time when his program was available. His thesis is still up. You would think there would be enough information in his thesis to reproduce the program. Maybe the program doesn't live up to his hype, and he is doing all this to manufacture interest in his non-existent or barely functional program.

Yes, I jest and say outrageous things. But if it is in the service of producing Good Discussion, is it not worthwhile?

Yes, just as you read it: a number of human beings were turned to smoke and smithereens, and this pathetic journalist, whoever he is, speaking with the mentality of a 10-year-old who blows up his toy soldiers, reports in cold blood how people were turned to ashes by his favorite (“impressive”, yeah) military toys. Of course, for overgrown pre-teens like him, the SUV was not full of human beings, but of “al-Qaeda leaders” (as if he knew their ranks), of terrorists, sub-humans who aren’t worthy of living, who don’t have mothers to be devastated by their loss.
You think sympathy for explosive sandniggers is a very Faux Newzy thing to express? And I thought Nikita was out of touch.

That article reeks of unwarranted self importance, written by a deluded confused idiot who thinks his simple puzzle solving tool is some sort of revolutionary AI. If he believed all that bullshit he wrote, shouldn't he take his entire website down? Why is his thesis still available? Probably because he is a deluded shithead.

Cuz we have big balls and testosterone and the mighty of God helping us to stay virile, therefore it's natural that we use our strength to fuck feminised atheist gayboys, to inject our strong seed inside their vulgar boypussies, hold them down with our strong, hairy arms and make they bow before the mighty of our sword of Christ. Duch is the faith of the atheist, with long, smooth hair, pretty and androgynous face and body, and sensitive personality

Could we get back to the topic please? What cognitive models have you guys worked with? Have you made anything using them, even a very simple proof of concept or something just for practice?

Puzzles like that are typical of IQ tests, which frequently failed by human. Then again, these puzzles could be solved using statistics correlation, given that you parse these figures into sufficiently simple format (i.e. number of angles or topology). So the test by no mean prove any intelligence - just good statistics knowledge on the part of the AI's programmer.

IIRC, Hofstadter himself wrote a Lisp program capable of matching them.

The puzzle solving isn't the interesting aspect. You're right, there are other techniques for solving it. Its the simulation of the cognitive process that is interesting. For example, Hofstadter chose a simple letter string domain to demonstrate the model. Even for such a simple problem a complex concept network and library of codelets needs to be implemented. But watching the thing in operation on this simple problem is a thing of beauty. I am inspired to use this system for all sorts of things, AI or not.
