ARTIFICIAL BRAINS: AN EVOLVED NEURAL NET MODULE APPROACH

This book explains how the author is building China’s first artificial brain, using an evolved neural net module approach. These modules are evolved in special hardware very fast, each with its own little job. They are downloaded one by one into the memory of a supercomputer, and connected up according to the designs of human “BAs” (Brain Architects) to build artificial brains, which then control the hundreds of behaviors of robots. These artificial brains contain thousands of pattern recognition circuits. We expect this approach to produce artificial brains with several 10,000s of evolved neural net modules. The robots will also be given language abilties so that we can converse with them.
