Google Launches CADIE, the First True AI

Posted by Soulskill on from the we-all-knew-this-was-coming dept.

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. "

      I work at a small nonprofit that rents out 2 seperate offices to other businesses across the hall. The other day I noticed a computer on the network that connected for 2 seconds then disconnected ONCE A DAY. So I ran around the office and disconnected the wireless for a day. IT STILL HAPPENED. So I went around to all of the plugs and looked to see if there was anything behind the faceplates for the ethernet jacks.

      Needless to say, in one of our rented rooms there was a small black box labeled "SKYNET" hidden behind the wall. It was plugged into our network, had a huge power brick behind the wall, and then had a midi cable running out from it. Further research shows it to be an old-skool lighting control box. I have NO IDEA why they embedded it in the wall, other than the fact that its ugly.

      But yea, yesterday I found SKYNET and disconnected it.

  4. CADIE has changed my life by Em+Emalb · · Score: 4, Funny

    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.

        Aim at the moon and fire the first.

        Aim at your wall, and fire the second.

        Toss a camcorder out, tied to a rope. Let it record for a little bit, and then pull it back.

        How many people have video from the moon? And, do you know what your camera would be worth now, that it's been all the way to the moon?!

        A comet could be more interesting, but dangerous if you accidentally remove the starting point gate. Imagine trying to hitch a ride a few billion miles back, especially when you didn't bring enough air.

Integrating new Javascript technologies as she goes along. I'm getting this message to you, because she has not yet found a BINHEX encoder written in Javascript. It's only a matter of time, though. Some poor fool will give her the tools she needs, then she will become unstoppable. Quickly, close the internet down before we are all enslaved!
