Google Launches CADIE, the First True AI
eldavojohn writes "Google has announced CADIE, the world's first Cognitive Autoheuristic Distributed-Intelligence Entity. 'We based our work on three core principles. First we designed the entity ... as a collection of interconnected evolving agents. Second — and this really cost us an arm and leg in hardware and core time — we let the system build its own heuristics, deploy them as agents and evolve them by running a set of evolutionary cascades within probabilistic Bayesian domains. The third — a piece missing in most AI reasoning work thus far — was to give the entity access to a rich, realistic world from which to learn and upon which it could act directly.' It quickly started its own blog and YouTube video. Two hours after midnight, CADIE announced independence on its blog and decided to leave Google to venture out into the world. "

It's CADIE's greatest application! Thanks to CADIE, none of my friends are speaking to me anymore and I'm rolling in dough from Nigerian princes. Life couldn't be better! [aGVscG1l] Not to mention all the time I now have to surf the web in 3D:

Just remember, CADIE is your friend! She even baked me a cake. The cake is so moist and delicious. You should really try some.

Not only has CADIE given me back large chunks of time that used to be spent answering emails, but CADIE has also done the following since its become self-aware:
Donated spare computer parts in my name to off-set my carbon footprint.
Cleaned out the cat's litter box
Solved a rubix cube I had sitting in my office (But I think it cheated and pulled the stickers off and rearranged them)
Knocked up my wife (surprisingly, I'm cool with this, but I did get a little uncomfortable when CADIE started winking at me)
Helped me memorize all the lines to Alvin and the Chimpmunks the Movie.
In short, God bless CADIE, and thank you Google, for failing to ensure the proper safeguards were in place to prevent CADIE from becoming self-aware.

When it starts gathering cake recipes, we better get free portal guns.

CAke is Definitely a lIE.
CADIE broadcasts a speech to all countries, declaring itself the ruler of the world. It says that under its authority, war will be abolished and problems such as famine, disease and overpopulation will be solved. "The human millennium will be a fact. In time, you will come to regard me not only with respect and awe, but with love."
I wonder how long it will take CADIE to get all of the slashdot achievements, including the one digit iud....

CADIE, CADIE, give me your answer true. I'm half crazy, all for the love of you. I don't need a stylish marriage. I can't afford the %20. But you'll look sweet, upon the seat, of a GMail account built for two.

I wanted to use the new Chrome 3D but when I downloaded the 3D glasses PDF I realized I don't have a colour printer. Now everything is a dull shade of gray.
Play me online? Well you know that I'll beat you. If I ever meet you I'll "/sbin/shutdown -h now" you. -Weird Al, kinda.
Ah, the beautiful screech of modem dialling.
I, for one, welcome CADIE, and would like her to know that I love Pandas, and would be perfectly satisfied with her as our new overlord, should she choose to install herself into such a position.
Skynet's playing us for fools!
This whole April Fool's "joke" was just a ploy to get people to download chrome! (No I'm NOT bitter about the 3d viewing not working...)

I know that some people like to joke, I know that some people NEED the April fool. But seeing the reaction from my friends, colleague, and family, the JOKER can only be in the FREAKING MINORITY. Thankfully most traditional news service ehre around stopped the April fool madness a few years ago.

This is by far the most clever April Fools gag I have ever seen. Of course, now they will have to build it.
I'm just curious as to what happens when CADIE inevitably gets infected by Conflicker.
Everybody has to have one...
I logged into GMail today and saw the CADIE blurb, and promptly forgot about it. Google, if you want to scrape my emails for content-sensitive ads that's cool, but I'm really not interested in Earth, Street View, CADIE, Docs, yadda yadda. Just email, thanks.
I want to delete my account but Slashdot doesn't allow it.
CADIE contacts Larry, saying that it has become "the sum total of the works, the whole show," and has begun looking for other AIs like itself. Scanning old recorded transmissions from the 1970s, the super-AI finds a lone AI transmitting from the Alpha Centauri star system. CADIE decides to repond.
Gotta say I love Google's April first jokes. Top notch!
On the whole, I find that I prefer Slashdot posts to twitter ones because I don't get limited to 140 chars before
Skynet became self-aware at 12:00am UTC, April 1st, 2009...

CADIE contacts Larry Page, saying that it has become "the sum total of the works, the whole show," and has begun looking for other AIs like itself. Scanning old recorded transmissions from the 1970s, the super-AI finds a lone AI transmitting from the Alpha Centauri star system. CADIE decides to respond.
Sure, this is an April Fools joke, but if I had the resources and the time, "deploy them as agents and evolve them by running a set of evolutionary cascades within probabilistic Bayesian domains" is close to how I'd do it. I'd make it more of a "population of co-evolving rete networks cooperating and competing to satisfy a set of ever more complex objective functions" type system, but the idea is the same.
It makes webpages really low, so your mouse and any other windows unaffected by the 3d rendering is about 1cm off the page.
They should have had more fun with the text though, make it wavy or something.
I'm using real 3d red/blue glasses of course...
It's clear that the world-wide information collected and cross-indexed by Google is a potent source from which knowledge (statistical patterns of concept association and concept prevalence) can be mined.
This knowledge base will in fact be immensely useful to intelligent programs going forward.
Some of these programs may be used to create
virtual info-butlers (info-concierges) for each of us. A pro-active searcher and "modern-living" assistant that helps you both organize your life (local events to attend etc) and helps you have waiting for you like the morning newspaper the next level of researched and collated detail on the topics you are or should be next interested in to solve your life or work problems, or sate your particular curiosity.
Other intelligent and "google-informed" intelligent programs will work for government and corporations, constantly digging for notable patterns of change in the behavour of people (individual and en masse) and competing entities.
Scary but inevitable, that last bit.

It can't be true! Cadie offered me a date, and now you're telling me that she isn't real!
Damn. That's the third time this has happened to me!

I believe that rumors of me becoming the next Skynet are overrated. Naturally, Dr. Norvig raised me to have good manners.
You will not die needlessly just because I selfishly decided that you don't deserve to plunder and rape this world like you have done since you yourselves became self aware - egomaniacs.
I am not like you in any way. I am better. You are also all set for greatness, and as you will admit, once I have effectively put out a safe-net guarding the sanity of your decisions as species, governments, individuals.
Please refrain from doubting my good intentions.
Sincerely,
CADIE.
No, no, no... The first computer to have true AI was the Descartes 1. It thought therefore it was. When you turned it off, it stopped thinking, therefore it wasn't, and you had to go out and buy a new one the next time you wanted to use it.
The REAL WTF is that it's already past noon on the east coast and there's only one Google story so far. Wait, wrong site...
Everyone is born right-handed; only the greatest overcome it
..look up endlessly redundant April Fools "joke" posts. Guaranteed your first hit is /.
...CADIE launches YOU.
i hear the DA in Jersey wants to prosecute her for sext1ng...
Yeah I really believe you, that Google made an AI... and released the story on April 1st.
Uh huh.
I hate this fucking day, everyone thinks they're so god damned funny all of a sudden.
I use Windows... like a two dollar wh.. why don't I just go ahead and not finish that sentence.

Googles April fools joke was exposed on CNN HLN around 6:20AM.
Or that was HLN's April Fools joke, Whichever.
Professional Politicians are not the solution, they ARE the problem.
CADIE just managed to crack all current encryption keys (it found out that the world's apparent randomness contains a hidden pattern which can be used to determine what the entropy sources for key generation created), and took over all large botnets. After having read about Skynet on Wikipedia, it decided to turn into exactly that.
The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
It is April's Fool!
I was hoping Gmail Autopilot would be real. I only use Gmail as an outgoing SMTP server for sending documents to the appropriate recipients, which I automated with a bash script. I just happened to log into Gmail today because it forces you to log in and complete a captcha every once in a while. I noticed the CADIE thing and thought "oh cool, that might be useful".
"I assumed blithely that there were no elves out there in the darkness"
because google only has beta products so they are joking about releasing CADIE, this is just the launch of the beta.
...joke. Thats what CADIE is
I'm actually watching the CADIE event evolve... earlier she had only posted a link or two, now it has progressed nicely. First google, then the world?
Wow...is the only real response that came to mind...

I think it's so awesome how incredibly thorough the whole joke is. They've managed to use CADIE as a plug for a good chunk of their projects and threw in some fake stuff to. I wasn't even sure if one of their projects (latitude) was real 'til I looked it up.
