Jon loves Lucy

| 0 Comments

I'm not doing very well at keeping this updated. Too much time writing code. However, here's a lovely article from yesterday's Guardian in which Jon Ronson visits a guy who's building an AI robot at home near Weston-Super-Mare, UK. I'm not saying it has any great insights, but it's a good read!

"Her eyes are following me around the room!" I say. "Is that the breakthrough?"

"Her eyes aren't following you around the room," says Steve. "That's your imagination." There is a silence. "Actually," he adds, "Lucy's eyes can follow you around the room. She's just not doing it now."
