Chaired by SIAI Director of Research Dr. Ben Goertzel and Director of Outreach Bruce Klein, with software support from Director of Open-Source Projects David Hart, and with Research Fellow Eliezer Yudkowsky in attendance, the conference was an important step to building a strong scientific community around AGI. The proceedings have been published by IOS Press.

Reports on the conference appeared in New Scientist and the local press. See also the report on the SIAI blog.

“Open Letter” on AGI?

September 30th, 2007 – Michael Anissimov

With the goal of eventually spawning an AGI Roadmap, should we craft an open letter highlighting the potential promise and peril of Artificial General Intelligence?

Thanks to Michael Anissimov for creating the initial draft and also to a number of other SIAI supporters for their contributions, we have a start on an AGI Open Letter.

Please reply below (or email me: bruce@singinst.org) if you think the open letter idea is worthwhile or not and/or if you have ideas for improvement. I plan to tally results and incorporate as many suggestions as possible. Thanks!
