  3. 64-bit Computing: Looking Forward to 64-bit AI by Mentifex · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Whether it's an Alpha chip, or Merced/Itanium/McKinley -- the really dazzling promise of 64-bit computing lies in the coming of age of artificial intelligence in 2002. According to a white paper on Standards in Artificial Intelligence, "64-bit systems are the wave of the future, and AI is the most futuristic of all computer applications. Therefore, if we have a choice, it is better to code a 64-bit AI than to linger amid the inertia of substandard albeit prevalent 32-bit architectures."

    64-bit AI is a desirable standard because all the emerging AI Minds -- MSIE JavaScript AI or Visual Basic Mind.VB or Java-based Mind.JAVA -- consist mainly of a machine intelligence superstructure operating on top of enormous arrays of preferably 64-bit memory arrays. With the currently popular 32-bit CPU chips, Robot AI memory limitations are too severe because a memory of 2^32 size is not enough. In the coming year of 2002 and beyond, both 64-bit CPU architectures and True AI Mind architectures are coalescing into the race towards Technological Singularity.
