Can We Build A Real Golem? These Academics Think So
A conference in the Czech Republic is calling for robot and artificial researchers to work on real-life golems.
In Jewish and Czech folklore, the golem
is an artificial, human-like creature that's animated by magic. Now
some scientists want to try their best to create a real-life version of
the golem.
The Beyond Artificial Intelligence
conference, to be held at the University of West Bohemia in the Czech
Republic this November, is calling on researchers to submit papers on
how to best create an "Artificial Golem Intelligence."
Although the official conference subject is Artificial General Intelligence, organizers are happy to explore the relevance for building real-life golems, as seen in the call for papers below.
Topics for the conference include possibilities for building
cybernetic brains, the use of Kabbalah in artificial intelligence labs,
and the uncanny valley.
So, the question is... who wants to be the first owner of a real-life magical superhuman giant?
