Quasi the Robot @ Wired NextFest 2006

A conversation I had with Quasi the Robot at the Wired NextFest in NYC (which was amazing). Quasi was built by students at Carnegie Mellon University's Entertainment Technology Center in Pittsburgh...

balto ever tried a game called sea man on dreamcast? that darn thing could hold up pretty darn good convos and that was like what 10 years ago or something?

its not really AI but its programed with responses...MANY of them to many possible questions... at least that is how i think it is

your lack of understanding amazes me. Look up Qrio. AI these days can be extremely intelligent if properly programmed.

ru joking

I'm currently taking Honor's Computer sciences and actually know how to program and write script

you are truly a soul example of an ignorant American

Plz tell me the basic of program design
At the core there is script, or the language of computers which is translated by the JavaScript then is prepared with Alice and finally figured to the appropriate code stream of the cmd and so on

of course the process is more advanced then that but i simplified it so you could understand

what I'm getting at is that for every line or speech record, there is a command for it

that command is made by a programmer
a single word could take to 3 to 6 lines of script
now imagine in that small head of yours the unique tone and the speed of that little robot's response to a question. For each of every word he knows (not that he does hes fake), understands, and the operation to come up with a correct response would take 100-300 years even if they worked day and night

You have been fooled

I've seen Quasi in person. He can be puppeteered, and he can also act autonomously. I don't know which is the case in this video, but having interacted with Quasi personally, I can say that he is entirely capable of having this kind of conversation without human control.

Really?!

Haha you have no idea how machines work do u?

The true A.I, a self-thinking creation will take 50 to 100 years to obtain

the only ones we can come close 2 are just advanced algorithms that's it

no i didnt mean true AI just an AAI artifical AI because we could make and robot that has a program to do freely what it wants a program that will kind of control it but make it do random things like go to the fridge or do a random draw either choosing to take a command or not taking it . AI i dont think will ever be like the human brain
