The Todalarity is Here - Toufi Saliba

Episode 12

Friday, January 17, 2020 • Duration 55:53

To understand why the TODA/SingularityNET collaboration makes so much sense, one has to look carefully at the essential missions and architectures of the two projects, the historical contexts that produced each of them, and the futures that each are working to build

In this Podcast and series of 3 blog posts, we’re going to take a fairly deep dive — but those who bear with us till the end will be rewarded with a genuine understanding of the profound potential that SingularityNET, TODA and Todalarity, working together, have to seed the emergence of the next level of Internet intelligence. By which I mean both immediately practical, applied AI products and services — and slightly longer term, the transition from today’s narrow AI systems to powerful AGI systems resident in and emergent from the global AI network

Online information resources regarding TODA are in rapid development this fall; for now Toda.Network, TODAQ and Todalarity are the places to look.

Re-engineering humans and rethinking digital networked tools - Prof. Brett Frischmann

Season 1 · Episode 11

Friday, August 2, 2019 • Duration 01:01:01

Re-engineering humans and rethinking digital networked tools. "We become what we behold. We shape our tools and then our tools shape us." - (John Culkin, 1967) Introduction

Since Prometheus' gift of fire to humankind, humans have been using it as a tool to adapt to their environment and ultimately adapt the environment to themselves. Yet, from contract law, to media, to the roads we create, human beings have also always been shaped by their very own tools. A set of foreseen and unforeseen consequences on the way people develop, learn, interact, or build relationships tend to manifest with ubiquitous tools. This is a rather obvious observation but an important one to make in order to contextualise the way that modern digital networked tools have affected people in the information age.

In this month’s AGI podcast, we were honored to receive and converse with Professor Brett Frischmann who recently wrote, along with his colleague Professor Evan Selinger, the book Re-Engineering Humanity joined. Much of the podcast’s discussion touches on subjects that the book covers in-depth and with a refreshing level of optimism despite the harsh reality it unveils.

The guest, Brett Frischmann, is the Charles Widger Endowed University Professor in Law, Business and Economics at Villanova University. He is also an Affiliate Scholar of the Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School and a Trustee for the Nexa Center for Internet & Society in Torino, Italy. More importantly, Prof. Frischmann has researched extensively on knowledge commons, the Social Value of Shared Resources and (the relationships between the techno-social world and humanity). These have been core to the vision of SingularityNET and it was an exciting opportunity to discuss them with such a knowledgeable guest.

AGI & The Singularity - Dr. Ben Goertzel

Season 1 · Episode 1

Wednesday, July 18, 2018 • Duration 01:03:36

AGI & The Singularity - Dr. Ben Goertzel

In this inaugural episode we have the good fortune of interviewing the founder and CEO of Singularitynet, Dr. Ben Goertzel.

Having had a chance to spend quite a bit of time with Ben in Hong Kong, we were struck by not only the pace at which Ben and the team were moving the foundation forward, but also Ben’s earnest and unwavering commitment to creating a positive technological singularity.

Who is Dr. Ben Goertzel?

Dr. Ben Goertzel is the CEO and leading AI expert for SingularityNET, and chief Scientist of Hanson robotics, a Hong kong robotics company that is the creator of Sophia one of the world’s most advances humanoid robots.

Ben also serves as chairman of the artificial general intelligence society which hosts the annual AGI research conference series, its upcoming in August 2018, and the opencog foundation an organisation leading international development of advanced opensource AI tools.

Dr. Goertzel is one of the world’s foremost experts in Artificial Intelligence publishing over 141 scientific articles and 12 scientific books in the field of AI with the focus on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), and thinking machines with general cognitive capabilities of the human level and beyond.

He also has decades of expertise applying AI to practical problems in areas ranging from natural language processing and Datamining to robotics, video gaming, national security, and bio informatics.

Before relocating to HongKong in 2011 Dr. Goertzel held an executive roles AI consulting and product development firms, prior to that he served as a faculty member in mathematics at the university of Nevada las Vegas, in cognitive science at the university of western Australia, and in computer science at the Lucardo New Zealand

The Tokenization of Knowledge - Larry Sanger

Season 1 · Episode 10

Wednesday, June 19, 2019 • Duration 47:23

Introduction

If we combine all the Wikipedias, there will be 27 billion words, written in 293 languages, spread across over 40 million articles.

By crowdsourcing knowledge and offering it for free over the internet, there is little doubt that Wikipedia has provided immense value to humanity. The project, unlike many others, successfully tapped into the open source spirit of the Web 1.0 and survived the onslaught of the walled gardens that sprung up as the web evolved. As the world’s most frequented encyclopedia in humanity’s history, it has achieved enviable success in its mission to democratize knowledge.

So why is Larry Sanger, the co-founder of Wikipedia, one of its harshest critics? What is his vision for a Wikipedia 2.0? And what has it got to do with the blockchain?

In the latest episode of the AGI Podcast, we asked Larry Sanger all of those questions — and more — for a fascinating and insightful conversation on knowledge marketplaces, decentralized curation, and finding the best of our knowledge.

Building the unimaginable - Jan-Peter Doomernik

Season 1 · Episode 9

Tuesday, April 9, 2019 • Duration 47:32

Today’s article is about a particularly inspiring AGI Podcast revolving around decentralized efforts to achieve synoptical systems for social good, and which ties in with a new endeavor undertaken by the SingularityNET team. This week we interviewed a prominent figure in the European blockchain and AI innovation scene: Jan-Peter Doomernik. Jan-Peter is Nature 2.0’s Lead Architect and a Senior Business Developer working in one of Holland’s leading distribution service operators (DSO) Enexis Netbeheer. In the podcast, we discuss the “demystification of complexity”, the upcoming Odyssey hackathon, and the efforts that civil society, academia and industry can make to introduce new autonomous systems imbued with humanitarianism.

“In forests, you have big trees and little trees and those trees are connected like a network in which the big trees share resources of sunlight and water to the little trees so that the little trees do not have to become competitors.” — Jan-Peter Doomernik

Changing the world one system at a time - A conversation with Mark

Season 1 · Episode 8

Friday, March 29, 2019 • Duration 01:09:36

Changing the world one system at a time: a conversation with Mark Turrell.

We were delighted to receive Mark Turrell on the AGI podcast for a fascinating and well-informed conversation on humanity, organising principles, structural tendencies and networks. Mark is a Harvard educated entrepreneur, educator, author and strategist. He has focused most of his life on understanding, solving and improving complex problems across industries and cultures. Be it from Europe, Africa or North America, Mark has helped companies scale -a topic on which he wrote a book about- and has passionately supported people and projects poised toward social good, for which he received the title of Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. Currently, he is an associate professor at Hult Business School and the CEO of both Orcasci and Vork, a strategy agency and a networking app, respectively.

If we were to end Mark’s introduction with a glimpse of his raison d’être, it would be with the following:

“My goal is to change the entire world for the better, all of it, at the same time, so that people can be happier, be less sad, and be free to choose. As a pragmatist, I develop plans and tactics to achieve this.”

We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did while interviewing Mark.

Season 1 · Episode 7

Monday, February 18, 2019 • Duration 35:52

Becoming one with technology, with Zoltan Istvan

Though you can find transhumanists “by the millions” around the globe, you will not find many quite like Zoltan Istvan. His dedication to the cause of transhumanism has marked his political and public life and deserve a brief introduction.

Zoltan is one of the most vocal figures in the U.S today fighting to bring about an informed public conversation around the topic of fully integrating technology into our lives, and ultimately to kindle a transhumanist rights movement. Zoltan is the founder of the Transhumanist Party in the United States (US) for which he ran as the presidential nominee, and a journalist published by Vice’s Motherboard, Wired and Techchrunch. He is also the author of the Transhumanist Wager and the Transhumanist Bill of Rights. Recently Zoltan has given talks at the United Nations, World Economic Forum, and at the Global Innovation Forum in Armenia.
