Or: The New Style Of A.I.

Example Programs

• "Magnus Carlsen's Breakfast"
• "Fibonacci numbers"
• "Smart Editor"

Step 1:
Concepts instead of words

• Magnus Carlsen => zlydvmmyckgcyrak
• Norway => iuqmfbyjyxmfxntn
   
• The advantage: Concepts are easier to handle and WAY more clearly defined than English words.

Concepts have...

• ...home pages.
  
  Magnus Carlsen: ai1.lol/zlydvmmyckgcyrak
  Norway: ai1.lol/iuqmfbyjyxmfxntn
   

Concepts have...

• ...relations to each other.
  
  "X lives in Y." => fhsukilpoasgkvcs
  
  Thus:
  
  "Magnus Carlsen lives in Norway" =>
      fhsukilpoasgkvcs zlydvmmyckgcyrak iuqmfbyjyxmfxntn
   

What does the A.I. do?

• Translate english to concepts
• Translate concepts back to english
• Relate concepts
• Apply rules
• Search for patterns
• Collect information
• Clean up the database

What About Synonyms?

• Synonyms are just concepts related to each other in the concept database

Multiple Meanings Are Not A Problem

The Meta-Level

• This is the key concept for real A.I.:
  Talking to the A.I. about itself.
   
• It is not a problem - our A.I. handles any thought structure, whatever the subject is.

Thought Webs

Thought webs = primary means of thought

(simple example)

Another Thought Web

What can we represent in an A.I.?

Anything that can be described with words!

• Everyday knowledge
• Math
• Feelings
• Jokes
• Abstract ideas

What about programming?

• We can talk to the A.I. about programs
• The A.I. will learn to analyze and even generate programs
• Manual programming is slowly phased out!

Technical Basis

• My A.I.s are implemented in "JavaX", a Java dialect.
• No installation required
  • Just get Java and run a single file (x30.jar)
• Supports Windows, Mac OS, Linux and Android
• So far it's all open source

What Can We Do Today?

• We can build small A.I. applications in short time
  (~ 1 day)
• We mainly use natural language (English) to describe everything
• Programming effort will become ever closer to zero with each application
• In a few months time, hopefully no more programming will be required for anything (!).

It's Time for Commerce!

• First A.I.s are cheap!
   
• Introductory offer:
  Get a small custom A.I. for 50 €
