I’m speaking at Extrobritannia
On Saturday the 31st of October, I’m going to be the speaker at Extrobritannia here in London. I went along to their last meeting and it was totally packed out, nearly a hundred people I believe. Having both Dr. Aubrey de Grey and Dr. Anders Sandberg speaking explains why!
I’ll be covering topics from my PhD thesis, such as the definition of intelligence, Solomonoff’s model of Induction, Hutter’s AIXI and more recent work such as the Monte Carlo approximation of AIXI by Veness et. al. I’ll also include a few thoughts on how recent discoveries in theoretical neuroscience might help guide work towards AGI.
You can find the event on facebook here, and the announcement of the event on the Extrobritannia list here.
