Ever wonder how Christianity was spread to the nations? This is the complete story of Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles. From his birth in the bustling city of Tarsus to his death in the aristocratic city of Rome and everything in between, the Biblenauts take an exciting adventure to discover the biblical epic in this special mini-documentary. š

,1,How to build an A.I. brain that can surpass human intelligence

Artificial intelligence has the capability to far surpass our intelligence in a relatively short period of time. But AI expert Ben Goertzel knows that the foundation has to be strong for that artificial brain power to grow exponentially. It's all good to be super-intelligent, he argues, but if you don't have rationality and empathy to match it the results will be wasted and we could just end up with an incredible number-cruncher. In this illuminating chat, he makes the case for thinking bigger. Ben Goertzel's most recent book is AGI Revolution: An Inside View of the Rise of Artificial General Intelligence.

BEN GOERTZEL:
Ben Goertzel is CEO and chief scientist at SingularityNET, a project dedicated to creating benevolent decentralized artificial general intelligence. He is also chief scientist of financial prediction firm Aidyia Holdings and robotics firm Hanson Robotics; Chairman of AI software company Novamente LLC; Chairman of the Artificial General Intelligence Society and the OpenCog Foundation.His latest book is AGI Revolution: An Inside View of the Rise of Artificial General Intelligence.

TRANSCRIPT:
Ben Goertzel: If you think much about physics and cognition and intelligence itās pretty obvious the human mind is not the smartest possible general intelligence any more than humans are the highest jumpers or the fastest runners. Weāre not going to be the smartest thinkers.
If you are going to work toward AGI rather than focusing on some narrow application thereās a number of different approaches that you might take. And Iāve spent some time just surveying the AGI field as a whole and organizing an annual conference on the AGI. And then Iāve spent a bunch more time on the specific AGI approach which is based on the OpenCog, open source software platform. In the big picture one way to approach AGI is to try to emulate the human brain at some level of precision. And this is the approach I see, for example, Google Deep Mind is taking. Theyāve taken deep neural networks which in their common form are mostly a model of visual and auditory processing in the human brain. And now in their recent work such as the DNC, differential neural computer, theyāre taking these deep networks that model visual or auditory processing and theyāre coupling that with a memory matrix which models some aspect of what the hippocampus does, which is the part of the brain that deals with working memory, short-term memory among other things. So this illustrates an approach where you take neural networks emulating different parts of the brain and maybe you take more and more neural networks emulating different parts of the human brain. You try to get them to all work together not necessarily doing computational neuroscience but trying to emulate the way different parts of the brain are doing processing and the way theyāre talking to each other.
A totally different approach is being taken by a guy named Marcus Hutter in Australia National University. He wrote a beautiful book on universal AI in which he showed how to write a superhuman infinitely intelligence thinking machine in like 50 lines of code. The problem is it would take more computing power than there is in the entire universe to run. So itās not practically useful but theyāre then trying to scale down from this theoretical AGI to find something that will really work.
Now the approach weāre taking in the OpenCog project is different than either of those. Weāre attempting to emulate at a very high level the way the human mind seems to work as an embodied social generally intelligent agent which is coming to grips with hard problems in the context of coming to grips with itself and its life in the world. Weāre not trying to model the way the brain works at the level of neurons or neural networks. Weāre looking at the human mind more from a high-level cognitive point of view. What kinds of memory are there? Well, thereās semantic memory about abstract knowledge or concrete facts. Thereās episodic memory of our autobiographical history. Thereās sensory-motor memory. Thereās associative memory of things that have been related to us in our lives. Thereās procedural memory of how to do things.
