Authors who assert this thesis include Minsky ( 1967 ), Savage ( 1987 ) and Gurevich ( 2000 ):

Of note is the fact that AI pioneer Marvin Minsky was a consultant on the project of making HAL 9000 as realistic as possible according to the consensus predictions of the time ; Crevier quotes him as having said on the subject in 1967, " Within a generation ... the problem of creating ' artificial intelligence ' will substantially be solved ,", although Minsky states that he was misquoted.

Under the supervision of Marvin Minsky, Moses received his doctorate in Mathematics at MIT in 1967 with a thesis entitled Symbolic Integration.

Within the field of artificial intelligence, the Loebner Prize is somewhat controversial ; the most prominent critic, Marvin Minsky, has called it a publicity stunt that does not help the field along.

However, when introducing the concept of agencies ( a broad term that includes selves as one type of agency ), Minsky ( 1986 ) does suggest several important questions to ask about agencies: How do agents work?

Minsky: " But we will also maintain, with Turing.

But Minsky shows ( as do Melzak and Lambek ) that his machine is Turing complete with only four general types of instructions: conditional GOTO, unconditional GOTO, assignment / replacement / substitution, and HALT.

Like program flow of a Minsky machine, a flowchart always starts at the top of a page and proceeds down.

Researchers such as Marvin Minsky would write computer programs in languages such as LISP to attempt to formally characterize the steps that human beings went through, for instance, in making decisions and solving problems, in the hope of better understanding human thought, and also in the hope of creating artificial minds.

In Artificial intelligence Marvin Minsky, Herbert A. Simon, Allen Newell, and Kevin Warwick are prominent.

In the following, Marvin Minsky defines the numbers to be computed in a manner similar to those defined by Alan Turing in 1936, i. e. as " sequences of digits interpreted as decimal fractions " between 0 and 1:

Marvin Minsky expanded the model to two or more tapes and greatly simplified the tapes into " up-down counters ", which Melzak and Lambek further evolved into what is now known as the counter machine model.

Advocates of procedural representations were mainly centered at MIT, under the leadership of Marvin Minsky and Seymour Papert.

The principle was patented in 1957 by Marvin Minsky, although laser technology limited practical application of the technique.

Marvin Lee Minsky ( born August 9, 1927 ) is an American cognitive scientist in the field of artificial intelligence ( AI ), co-founder of Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AI laboratory, and author of several texts on AI and philosophy.

Marvin Lee Minsky was born in New York City to a Jewish family, where he attended The Fieldston School and the Bronx High School of Science.

Isaac Asimov described Minsky as one of only two people he would admit were more intelligent than he was, the other being Carl Sagan.

Minsky also built, in 1951, the first randomly wired neural network learning machine, SNARC.

Minsky wrote the book Perceptrons ( with Seymour Papert ), which became the foundational work in the analysis of artificial neural networks.

Minsky was an adviser on the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey and is referred to in the movie and book.

In the early 1970s at the MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab, Minsky and Seymour Papert started developing what came to be called The Society of Mind theory.

Minsky says that the biggest source of ideas about the theory came from his work in trying to create a machine that uses a robotic arm, a video camera, and a computer to build with children's blocks.

In 1986, Minsky published The Society of Mind, a comprehensive book on the theory which, unlike most of his previously published work, was written for a general audience.

In November 2006, Minsky published The Emotion Machine, a book that critiques many popular theories of how human minds work and suggests alternative theories, often replacing simple ideas with more complex ones.

Economist Hyman Minsky also described a " paradox of deleveraging " as financial institutions that have too much leverage ( debt relative to equity ) cannot all de-leverage simultaneously without significant declines in the value of their assets.

Once again, Minsky understood this dynamic.

Part fiction, part non-fiction, he interviews 20 big thinkers like Marvin Minsky, plus there is a B-line narrative story that illustrates some of the ideas, where a computer avatar ( Ramona ) saves the world from self-replicating microscopic robots.

This move was crucial: here Merezhkovsky met highly influential writers Korolenko and Garshin and later – Minsky, Balmont and F. Sologub: the future Russian symbolism's major figures.

By the time of his second novel's release, Merezhkovsky was in a completely different cultural camp – that of Dyagilev and his close friends – Alexandre Benois, Léon Bakst, Nikolay Minsky and Valentin Serov.

During April 2009, U. S. Federal Reserve Vice Chair Janet Yellen discussed the " Paradox of deleveraging " described by economist Hyman Minsky: " Once this massive credit crunch hit, it didn ’ t take long before we were in a recession.

Similar in many ways to this is the idea of mind uploading, promoted by Marvin Minsky and others with a mechanistic view of natural intelligence and an optimistic outlook regarding artificial intelligence.

Marvin Minsky, one of the pioneering computer scientists in artificial intelligence, relates emotions to the broader issues of machine intelligence stating in The Emotion Machine that emotion is " not especially different from the processes that we call ' thinking.

The Society of Mind is both the title of a 1988 book and the name of a theory of natural intelligence as written and developed by Marvin Minsky.

In a step-by-step process, Minsky constructs a model of human intelligence which is built up from the interactions of simple parts called agents, which are themselves mindless.

Engines of Creation: The Coming Era of Nanotechnology is a 1986 molecular nanotechnology book written by K. Eric Drexler with a foreword by Marvin Minsky.

There is also a Post Keynesian economics debt-crisis theory of Hyman Minsky.

University space-allocation politics being what it is, Minsky found that although Project MAC as a single entity could not get the additional space he wanted, he could split off to form his own lab and then be entitled to more office space.

In the field of Artificial Intelligence, a frame is a data structure introduced by Marvin Minsky in the 1970s that can be used for knowledge representation.

Frame Technology is loosely based on Minsky Frames, its purpose being software synthesis rather than pattern analysis.

According to Marvin Minsky, because people can construe false ideas to be factual, the process of thinking is not limited to formal logic.

Organised by John McCarthy ( then at Dartmouth College ) and formally proposed by McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Nathaniel Rochester and Claude Shannon, the proposal is credited with introducing the term ' artificial intelligence '.

Similar to traditional Zen koans, this koan has a possible concrete and correct answer: just as the room is not really empty when Minsky shuts his eyes, neither is the neural network really free of preconceptions when it is randomly wired.

Terri Minsky is an American television writer and producer who created Lizzie McGuire, Less Than Perfect, and The Geena Davis Show as well as writing several episodes of Sex and the City.
