[ExI] SINGULARITY ALERT: Fast image processing algorithm.

[Alan Grimes]

Here's the free article:

I believe that this is a very significant development because it shows 
an important cognitive process being implemented on a single desktop 
machine, not even a server, cluster, or mainframe.

I have only skimmed the article so far, but it seems to have the general 
characteristics of what I believe to be the ideal intelligence 
algorithm. (the same techniques should be applicable to all cognitive 
functions). This has a number of implications, first human level 
intelligence should be feasible with less than a half-million dollars of 
hardware. Second, it means that AGI systems will out-perform human 
intelligence by a factor of about a million, considering the problems of 
low-level emulation of dendritic arbors.
