What happens if you can construct a person on a computer? From all the little chemical reactions in every single cell to an entire physiological system, humans are very complicated creatures.

Visions of the Techpocalypse: An Old-School Turing Machine
A real-life old-school Turing Machine. From the exhibition Go Ask A.L.I.C.E. : The Inner Workings, “Come for the Machines, Stay for the Humans”
Computational Creativity & Copyright: Artificially Intelligent Authorship
While researching AI and computational creativity for a paper I'm writing I realized the site for the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology Digest was down, so my paper "Artificial Intelligence and Authorship Rights" was inaccessible. I'm posting the penultimate draft here until such a time as they have it back up and want this…
Go Ask A.L.I.C.E. – Turing Tests, Parlor Games, and Chatterbots
Go Ask A.L.I.C.E. : The Inner Workings is amazing, one more open house and dramatic showing tomorrow (Thurs. Sept. 20) starting at 6:00pm in room 251 in the Harvard Science Center, and you should definitely go.
My Quest for Computational Creativity
All the pieces are out there. Self-managing systems. Autonomatons. Artificially intelligent creativity. Bots and spiders crawling over the web to gather and process information. Different paradigms that incorporate pseudorandomness, machine learning, and/or program machines to behave like people. ARE there digital entities out there now that call into question everything we know about authorship and…
Turing’s Chatterbots & Weak AI
Turing’s approach to a triggered a series of “chatterbots,” programs which were designed to interact with humans in a realistic way. Natural language processing was difficult for AI researchers to solve due to the huge difference in the way humans and machines process language. We learn through interaction with other people and the environment and…
A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence has had a rocky history. In 1956 Herb Simon, one of the discipline’s four founders, claimed “Within 20 years, computers will be able to do anything a man can do.” Yet many of the things we think of when we think of true artificial intelligence – such as understanding nuanced language, solving novel…
