🚀 The saga of Cyc: a $200 million, 40-year expedition into the depths of logical #AGI... with an epic plot twist: it failed! 🤖 Cycorp's secretive clubhouse antics left us with an #AI monument that's about as mature as a toddler on a sugar high. 🎢 RIP, Cyc—thanks for the memories and the vaporware!

Yuxi on the WiredCyc – Yuxi on the WiredObituary for the greatest monument to logical AGI. After 40 years, 30 million rules, 200 million dollars, 2000 person-years, and many promises, Cyc has failed to reach intellectual maturity, and may never will. Exacerbated by the secrecy and insularity of Cycorp, there remains no evidence of its general intelligence.

🎮💻 Oh, the joys of hacking an Xbox 360, where the only thing more elusive than a hypervisor is the actual content of this article! 🚫🔒 Apparently, #ModSecurity decided that some #vaporware text about a "Bad Update Exploit" was just too spicy for our fragile eyes. 🙈

“Tesla’s Full Self-Driving v12.5 rollout on HW3 failed, what happens next?”

Cars are being sold with hardware and a promise. The Lotus #Eletre also comes with motorized pods full of sensors and no software to use them. Do not pay money for this.

AI Has Become a Technology of Faith

An important thing to realize about the grandest conversations surrounding AI is that, most of the time, everyone is making things up. This isn’t to say that people have no idea what they’re talking about or that leaders are lying. But the bulk of the conversation about AI’s greatest capabilities is premised on a vision of a theoretical future. It is a sales pitch.

@Hypx Another announcement of a project for investors into funding some more . Wonderful.
🤮
And I say that as a big fan of both renewable energy and aviation. But this won't work on so many levels.
"Traditional" aren't great, either, but still vastly more practical, and, at least mid-term, a lot greener than typical hydrogen, and compared to actual "green" hydrogen, dirt cheap.
