On the Eve of
Artificial Minds
THE "OPEN MIND PROJECT" - A COLLECTION OF 39 ORIGINAL PAPERS:
These papers offer a cross-section of ongoing, cutting-edge research by young philosophers and scientists from various disciplines (e.g., psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience) on the topics of consciousness and cognition.
Fun read. If you enjoy
geeking out
on this stuff, this collection is a treasure chest!
Among many, I would recommend reading "
Wild Systems Theory (WST)"
and
"On the Eve of Artificial Minds"
including a timeline for rapid growth in robotics, brain-like computing, new theories of large-scale functional modeling, and financial resources directed at a significant increase in the abilities of artificial minds.
