And, of course, what AI funding is available is mostly eaten up by people like Minsky's proteges, who are pursuing intrinsically unworkable ideas, based on the old and unworkable ideas of Minsky and Schank and so forth The bad ideas of those AI guys from the 1970s have really had a lasting effect -- because, even now, almost the only way to get AI funding is to pursue ideas that are variations of those old and bad ideas... ben EFTA_R1_01509200 EFTA02436634

EFTA00700552 - Goertzel-Arel 'Robot Toddler' AGI Proposal for Epstein Foundation

DOJ-released document from Data Set 9 containing the draft research and development proposal prepared by AI researchers Ben Goertzel and Itamar Arel for the Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation. The proposal outlines a $3 million project to develop a 'robotic AGI toddler' — an artificial general intelligence system 'with the rough general intelligence of a human 3-4 year old child, demonstrated via embodiment in virtual world characters and humanoid robots.' Arel was designated as primary investigator, contributing his DeSTIN (Deep SpatioTemporal Inference Network) facial recognition system developed at the University of Tennessee using graduate student labor. Goertzel, who received direct salary from the Epstein Foundation, proposed the project and suggested additional hundreds of thousands in funding for Arel's research assistants. This document is central to understanding Epstein's funding of cutting-edge AI research through academic intermediaries.
