Is it possible to create a virtual human, artificial intelligence. who acted and felt like a real man., like in Star Trek for example.

Not yet, but many projects exist to create exactly that.

Can you tell me about these projects, once I read about the so-called. "Project Milo" by Peter Molyneux, I have no Xbox, but this program really curious me, I thought it might be fun to have on  computer such "Mr data" as in star trek TNG, or "Doctor" as in Star Trek Voyager, of course, is just science fiction, but it was great to see such technology in action.
I wonder why they canceled the "Project Milo"?
Are there any similar programs?

There are two ways of creating artificial intelligence - bottom up, and top down.

The top down is the less 'real' of the two as it is programmed responses to predetermined inputs. One or two exist like this where quite a few people spend all day inputting scenarios and outcomes. They have no concept of what France is, but can tell you everything about it.

The better ones are bottom up, like teaching a child. The longer running projects like this can produce almost animal intelligences with rooms full of computers. It learns it's environment, and has the potential to gain real intelligence.


In short, it is possible, and is being done, but it won't advance far until we start producing retail level quantum and optical computers.

So creating a real thinking AI is probably not in my lifetime :cry:

And I so dreamed to have this own "Mr. Data" on my computer

As I read the article on "Project Milo" I thought that was the impossible becomes possible, then it turned out that it was just a marketing scam :evil: , but Peter Molyneux says that it supposedly worked.
I think the AI will have to wait a little longer.

You write about quantum computers, I wonder when it will be available

Let me put it like this: The most advanced quantum to date computer has recently been able to factorise 21 in to it's component parts. That is all it did.

Optical (or 'Photonic') computing is probably the way forward
