Artificial Creativity
53 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 3 years ago - ★★★★ - 7 ratingsPodcast named after chapter 7 of David Deutsch's "The Beginning of Infinity". Trying to understand the mind using Popperian and Deutschian ideas!

15 – Theories of AGI
July 02, 2020 02:15 - 2 hours - 228 MBToday I’m speaking with Ella Hoeppner. Ella is a software engineer and independent AGI researcher. We’ve been discussing all things AGI for a while now and I wanted to have her on the podcast to present her theory of AGI and also to discuss a disagreement we’ve had about the role of replicators in any theory of AGI. Since we both spend a fair amount of time criticizing each other’s theories, you may get more out of this episode if you familiarize yourself with my neo-Darwinian theory of the m...
