Company Claims Development of True AI

YF 19 AVF wrote to mention a press release on Yahoo from company GTX Global. They think they've got a good thing on their hands, going so far as to claim they've developed the first 'true' AI. From the release: "GTX Global Cognitive Robotics(TM) is an integrated software solution that mimics human behavior including a dialogue oriented knowledge database that contains static and dynamic data relating to human scenarios. The knowledge further includes translation, processing and analysis components that are responsible for processing of vocal and/or textual and/or video input, extracts emotional characteristics of the input and produces instructions on how to respond to the customer with the appropriate substantive response and emotion based on relevant information found in the knowledge base." Somehow I think there is a littler hyperbole here. In your estimation, how close are we to the real thing?

Re:True AI

When you develop "true AI" you dont make a press release about it, you phone the military of your country of choosing and wait for men to arrive with large briefcases full of money. Let me put it this way, true AI is not annouced by /., you will read about it in Janes about 10 years after it happens.

Not if I invent it man. I hate the military and all they've done to us. If I invent true AI you can expect to read about it instantly... maybe even on slashdot so stay tuned! =)

Do they have PhDs from places like MIT, Caltech, UC Berkeley or Stanford?

Yeah, because if they havent been asscrawling in those places, they can't be smart, right?

F*ck off!!!
