The History of the Internet Project Super-Intelligent Machines: 7 Robotic Futures | The Singularity & Artificial Intelligence by Tia Ghose, Senior Writer | May 07, 2013 12:29pm ET Credit: photobank.kiev.ua | Shutterstock It's been the fodder for countless dystopian movies: a singularity in which artificial intelligence rivals human smarts. But though it sounds like science fiction, many computer scientists say the singularity will arrive some time in the 21st century. Still, few people agree on what that future will look like. From mass extinction to life extension, here are six potential implications of super-smart robots.

Lecture - Japan prize 2002 Commemorative Lecture - Berners-Lee TimBL Exploring Universality Abstract The most important thing about the World Wide Web is that it is universal. Hardware independence, which once meant running on mainframes, minicomputers and microcomputers, now extends to a multitude of devices from watches and speech devices to big screen televisions. Introduction The concept of the Web integrated many disparate information systems, by forming an abstract imaginary space in which the differences between them did not exist. Back in 1989, before the World Wide Web, many different information systems existed. The first breakthrough was the Internet, and I can't emphasize too often that I didn't invent the Internet! The way the Web works is very simple. The Web required everyone to give a URI to their documents: a large request. Device independence That the same information should be accessible from many devices is a core rule of the Web. The direct impact of the Web was seen in its ability to cross hardware and software boundaries. Quality

A Brief History of the Internet An anecdotal history of the people and communities that brought about the Internet and the Web (Last updated 28 May 2014) A Brief History of the Internet by Walt Howe is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License.Based on a work at www.walthowe.com.

The Internet was the result of some visionary thinking by people in the early 1960s who saw great potential value in allowing computers to share information on research and development in scientific and military fields. When the late Senator Ted Kennedy heard in 1968 that the pioneering Massachusetts company BBN had won the ARPA contract for an "interface message processor (IMP)," he sent a congratulatory telegram to BBN for their ecumenical spirit in winning the "interfaith message processor" contract. Who was the first to use the Internet?

Yapay Zekanın Zaman Tüneli - Gatmer Yapay zeka geçmişten geleceği teknolojinin hayatı değiştirdiği dönemler boyunca tartışılmış ve tartışılacak olan bir ürün olarak çağın belirleyicileri arasında her zaman bulunmuştur ve bulunacaktır. Günümüze kadar neredeyse her dönem bilim kurgu sinema filmlerinin konusu olan yapay zeka artık teknolojinin ilerlemesinden dolayı geliştirilip geliştirilmemesi yönündeki tartışmaların temeline oturdu. Eskiden ütopik bir dünyanın ürünü olan yapay zeka günümüze nasıl geldi önemli uğrak noktaları nelerdir aslında hangi filmler ve teknolojik gelişmeler yapay zekanın gelişiminde ki önemli noktalar bu galerimizde bunları araştırdık.1-Isaac Asimov 1950 yılında yazdığı I Robot kitabıyla yapay zekayı düşünce yapımıza entegre eden kişi yine aynı dönemde Alan Turing tarafından bilgisayar ve makinalar için kağıt üstünde uygulanmaya başlayan Turing Testi. 2-Yapay zekanın araştırılması ve geliştirlmesi için ilk karar Dartmouth Konferansı’nda alındı IBM 702 bilgisayarlarla başladı.

Computer chatbot 'Eugene Goostman' passes the Turing test A computer program that pretends to be a 13-year-old Ukrainian boy called Eugene Goostman passed a Turing test at the Royal Society in London yesterday (Saturday 6 June) by convincing 33 percent of the judges that it was human during a five-minute typed conversation. The test was suggested by computer scientist Alan Turing in 1950, and the competition was held on the 60th anniversary of his death. The judges included Robert Llewellyn, who played the android Kryten in Red Dwarf, and Lord Sharkey, who led the campaign for Turing's posthumous pardon last year. Llewellyn tweeted: "Turing test was amazing. Eugene Goostman's success was not a surprise. Kevin Warwick, a visiting professor at the University of Reading, which organised both tests, said it was the first time a chatbot had passed an open-ended test, rather than one where topics or questions were set in advance. The fictional Eugene has a father who is a gynaecologist, and has a pet guinea pig. Further reading

Abstract The study of the web as a graph is not only fascinating in its own right, but also yields valuable insight into web algorithms for crawling, searching and community discovery, and the sociological phenomena which characterize its evolution. : graph structure, diameter, web measurement 1. Consider the directed graph whose nodes correspond to static pages on the web, and whose arcs correspond to links between these pages. Designing crawl strategies on the web [ Cho and Garcia-Molina 2000 ]. Understanding of the sociology of content creation on the web. Predicting the emergence of important new phenomena in the web graph. the probability that a node has in-degree is proportional to , for some . 2.
