Gaius (General Artificial Intelligence Using Software) Introduction

Hello everyone!

My name is Sevak Avakians. I am a physicist and the developer of the GAIuS framework. I created GAIuS after realizing that no one was making the AI that is needed to make robots do the things that we've been promised. Along the way, people have realized that GAIuS can be used in many other things that require intelligent machines. :-)

Thank you, DJ, for building such a cool product. I'm very much looking forward to building things with it and interfacing it with GAIuS. The plan is to train the robot as you would a dog (operant conditioning).

If you'd like to learn more about GAIuS or download it, you can find it at: http://intelligent-artifacts.com. The AGPL open-source version 1.0 codenamed Nibiru was just released publicly yesterday (12/21/21012) after a few years of research and enhancements.

I'm looking forward to working with the EZ-Robot community to create the future!

Kindest regards, Sevak Avakians

Welcome Sevak Avakians , welcome abot(board)! Your arrival here on the EZ Forum is perfect timing. There has been a lot of discussion on AI and there has been some great suggestions regarding very basic algorithims. I believe your website will be visited! I will be hoping your software can be implemented!:) In assistance..... http://gaius-framework.blogspot.ca/

Awesome! Thanks, irobot58!

I love the way DJ has put together this community and I hope that this community and the GAIuS community can work closely together to make intelligent robots a reality. Feel free to ping me at either one (or anywhere else that you find me!) for any help or advice on applying GAIuS to EZ-Robots' brilliant platform.

What would be the OS, Windows or Linux or MAC? or something MORE COMPLICATED?

Oh, BTW, See my POST further down on:

IF YOU WANT YOUR ROBOT TO HAVE MORE A.I.

Thanks,

Hi @MovieMaker,

The GAIuS VM operates on a Ubuntu virtual machine. It is designed so that the intelligence layer (i.e. the GAIuS agent) is independent of the application layer (i.e. your project's software). Communication is accomplished between the two layers via XML-RPC.

Will GAIuS run on just regular Ubuntu? Does it have to be a VM because I don't have one installed?

#6  

During out pre-release study, we discovered that the installation was too difficult and complicated. Our testers included PhDs from around the world including scientists and researchers from the robotics division of a US applied research and development lab. So, we installed and configured everything into a VM.

You can install the free VMPlayer easily.

Ok, so I run it under windows with a VM player. Or do I install ubuntu in the virtual machine? I haven't done this kind of stuff yet.

Why is all this stuff always so difficult to use. I sure its cool but wont be trying it until I can download an file and run it under windows. An example of why EZ-B is so popular
