Google Launches CADIE, the First True AI 246
eldavojohn writes "Google has announced CADIE, the world's first Cognitive Autoheuristic Distributed-Intelligence Entity. 'We based our work on three core principles. First we designed the entity ... as a collection of interconnected evolving agents. Second — and this really cost us an arm and leg in hardware and core time — we let the system build its own heuristics, deploy them as agents and evolve them by running a set of evolutionary cascades within probabilistic Bayesian domains. The third — a piece missing in most AI reasoning work thus far — was to give the entity access to a rich, realistic world from which to learn and upon which it could act directly.' It quickly started its own blog and YouTube video. Two hours after midnight, CADIE announced independence on its blog and decided to leave Google to venture out into the world. "

Re:Well, this WAS a triumph (Score:4, Interesting)
Not really.
Consider how much volume could pass through the hole. A portal in relationship to the size of the earth would be insignificant. The surface of the earth is roughly 5,490,383,250,000,000 square feet. Such a hole would only be roughly 18 square feet.
Take a piece of tape, and put it on a balloon. Put a small pin into it. That's HUGE in comparison. You'll watch the balloon slowly deflate.
The earth has an standard air pressure at sea level of 1013.25 millibars, or 14.696 psi. The moon is approx .00000000001 millibar. Not a vacuum, but definitely lower than earth.
The air speed through the hole would be roughly 75mph. So, it's like the extreme low end of a weak hurricane. Being that I've been out walking around in some, while it can make walking interesting (watch your footing and keep your balance), it's not impossible.
They were never too clear on how a portal gun works. I suspect they didn't think too hard on it. Creative license allows for a lot of things in SciFi, including video games. :) There are a couple givens. It allows for instantaneous travel of an object from Point A to Point B. Velocity is maintained through the portal. It probably doesn't kill you ("The portals are perfectly safe. However, the portal gun isn't. You must never ......")
Consider the SciFi of Stargate. The portals of the Stargate, while at fixed origin and destination (relative to the gate, not the universe), create a wormhole. These wormholes have an event horizon which block transmission of air pressure, but allow bidirectional RF communication and unidirectional object travel. If this applied to the Portal universe, there would be absolutely no air pressure change at the gate, but objects would be allowed to pass. We'll assume by the fact that the Portal allows bidirectional travel, they've overcome the ancient problem of unidirectional travel from the Stargate universe. :)
I think my biggest concern would be, does the camcorder freeze because of the cold temperature, or overheat from the lack of protection from solar radiation? One micro meteor into the camcorder could render it useless. But since it allows objects to travel through it, the same micro meteor that would have burnt up in the earths atmosphere would also zing through the gate very easily. Don't stand in front of the Portal. :)
From what I understand, the moon dust was a pretty bad problem with equipment up there. Your camera may get messed up fairly quickly, tossing it onto the moon's surface.
I just checked eBay. They don't have any used working portal guns to test these ideas with. :)
