this is idiotic (Score 1)

I've been seeing a lot of these "AI research" topics lately. can't these people attack simpler problems first before trying to recreate human behavior? It is laughable that the state of the art of AI today can't even recreate the intelligence of a typical household pet. e.g. see if your dog can recognize faces better than a million dollar supercomputer face recognition machine. true AI will never arise out of preprogrammed machines, no matter how much computing power you have.
