About 30 people were there. From 19:00 to 20:30 we were nicely informed, how Neural Networks are used in geology to shift through the raw data. We also saw, how underused NNs are. Will the superintelligence ever be exploited less than its potentials? Maybe not.

In a much smaller circle it was the debate to the midnight. Nothing new for the readers of this site, I guess. I was mostly silent about my real views and since eudaemon has not came, we did not replicate this SIAI - Goertzel schism.

I had something on my mind to discuss about and we will do it the next time.

Early scenarios. Not necessarily for the full blown Singularity , or the full blown Gray Goo or something on that scale, but a total shocker here, or a black swan there, coming out of a lab or a basement in 201X. How and why and what that could possibly mean for the future development.

I have a few nifty ideas, and others have them too! Some could be shared the next time, when the remarks like "the computing is just a mechanism which can't bring you anything new" - will not be considered or discussed at all.
