CogBot:
Integrative artificial general intelligence software
to enable childlike intelligence in a humanoid robot
R&D Proposal
Abstract
The central challenge in the Al field, since its beginning ... demonstrate its success via using the integrated OpenCog/DeSTIN system to control a
Robokind humanoid robot carrying out a variety of preschool-type activities.
The proposed "CogBot" project is a collaboration ... multidisciplinary effort involving component problems in multiple Al areas, including computer vision and audition,
humanoid robot control, computational linguistics, probabilistic reasoning, automatic program learning, assignment of
credit and concept creation

Introduction
At its inception in the 1950s, the Al field aimed ... multidisciplinary effort involving component problems in multiple Al areas, including computer vision and audition,
humanoid robot control, computational linguistics, probabilistic reasoning, automatic program learning, assignment of
credit and concept creation ... human-level artificial general
intelligence implicit in the achievement of childlike intelligence in a humanoid robot.
Finally, in addition to the scientific and commercial implications of this work, we believe

project.
The project will involve ... demonstrate this learning capability in the context of virtual world characters
and humanoid robots. (By a "virtual world" here we mean a 3D video game type world,
but without necessarily ... game-play associated with a video game.) The dual
focus on virtual characters and humanoid robots is necessary because of the limitations
of each of these modalities. Virtual worlds lack
