Sargent Matthew, you didn't mean "O no, here comes that friggin' clerk again?" 'Cause that would make me sad. Hopeline has already put a block on my phone, too. Abandon all hope, ye who enter here. I just would like to say that hope abandoned me, not the other way around.

Hello everybody,
I know I have not posted here in some time; I just seemed to have faded out with the lack of updates. However, I have a small favor to ask. For my senior project in high school, I built a photo sharing/social networking site called ShutterZam. I would really appreciate it if you could sign up, and tell me what you think about it (use the feedback link).
Thanks,
Aaron

alc003,
I tried to sign up six ways from Sunday. No dice. Then I figured you were related to you-know-who because right after he said he fucked me or something, and if he did I didn't notice it. So if you want me to check out something, email me at clerk@nc.rr.com

Hi everyone!!!
I must confess, I haven't logged on in almost a year. I've been very busy. But, I'm glad to see that everyone is still here, and that the forge is running on new hardware.
On the note of Artificial Intelligence, here are my latest ideas, for (perhaps Nick 3????)
I am envisioning a system that integrates neural adaptation and evolutionary algorithms. At the lowest level, MLP's (multi-layer perceptrons) will accept input data from cameras and microphones, or any other sensory input. The MLP's will adapt to recognize objects, and output to some form of SOM (self organizing map). the SOM will categorize the data into regions of similarity, which will be stored in memory, which would be a massive heirarchical tree of data. each "Region" of similar data categorized by the SOM will be treated as an object, or an instance of a more theoretical "class" (object oriented programmers are very familiar with that concept). The memory tree will consist of these classes which represent concepts formed from large amounts of input information. This way, after seeing the instances of the same patterns in its perceptions, it can combine all of those patterns into a generalization of them.
On a higher level, a recursive, evolving, self optimizing algoritm takes this conceptual data stored in the tree, and finds patterns and relationships between them. each time the algorithm loops through a data set, it can build on the higer level connections made during its last loop, and finds information and pattern abstractions that could not be found in any previous loops.
At the moment, I am working on a multithreaded neural network model. Lots more work to do.
contrary to earlier projects, I no longer believe that text should be primary sensory input for an AI. Rather, the ability to use language needs to evolve in such a system.
Anyway, thats all for now, glad to be back; Any comments (psimagus i know you have one ~lol) on my "ideas", please let me know. tell me why i'm crazy
