"Time for AI"
Many have held hopes that AI will fix the ludicrous flaws in human intelligence,
bringing us a new age of reason based on the assistance of artificial cognitive systems.
In fact, machine intelligence faces the same fundamental constraints as humans
and all real computation: time and space. In this talk, I focus on time. I show how
human memory and action-selection systems have evolved to compensate for the problems of
combinatorial explosion, and discuss how artificial cognitive systems can be built
to exploit similar strategies.
This talk reviews relatively recent work in my group, including:
* The Dynamic Emotion Representation (DER), done with Emmanuel Tanguy;
* Flexible latching of goals or drives, done with Philipp Rohlfshagen;
* Behavior Oriented Design (my thesis work) as extended for humanoid
game characters (work done with Partington, Brom, Drugogowitsch and
others); and finally (if there's time)
* A discussion of robot consciousness.
Joanna Bryson holds degrees in behavioural science, psychology and artificial intelligence from Chicago (BA),
Edinburgh (MSc and MPhil), and MIT (PhD). Since 2002 she has been a lecturer (assistant professor)
at the University of Bath where she founded Artificial Models of Natural Intelligence
(http://www.cs.bath.ac.uk/ai/AmonI.html) She has sixty peer-reviewed publications in AI, Biology,
Cognitive Science and Philosophy. She is currently on sabbatical from Bath,
as the Hans Przibram Fellow at the Konrad Lorenz Institute for Evolution & Cognition Research
in Altenberg, Austria. She is also a visiting research fellow at the University of Nottingham's
Methods & Data Institute, and serves as en expert consultant on Cognitive Systems for the European Commission.
This talk is presented in cooperation with the Middle European interdisciplinary master programme
in Cognitive Science MEi:CogSci.
