Re: Talk on where next for AI

Thanks for sharing, Nice talk

Useful summary overview to be reminded 'where we are' and glad to see a
intersect with KR in the ;symbolic ai is here to stay'
Also good to learn about you *didnt know you were @Oxford @Edinburgh @Mit!
Now you are talking brains
I also learn a bit more about PKN, and played with the demo generator,
wondering how may I be able to use it,
Great to have accomplished a notation here and created a grammar. maybe
some tutorials/use cases for the rest of us?

I dont know about sentient AI, for me sentient means that it has
consciousness, it may be useful to characterise it in more depth further?

DR

Sentient AI as the basis for agents with
continual learning through continual
prediction, continual reasoning, awareness of
their environment, goals and performance,
along with the means to remember and
reflect on their past experiences.

A lot to unpack!

Is the last slide an invitation to team up? I cannot wrap my head around
funding calls easily...
But if you need input on some project outline from my side, please get in
touch

Thanks for the good work
