Is Cycorp USA Governments Evil Artifical Intelligence Expert

by Kurt Brown, Saint Ram Bone
America may soon meet the super-human robot. Do not get excited, because it may be putting you behind the new concentration camp fences in the USA. An activist arrested in Los Angeles alerted us to Cycorp whose link is below
emergencebeautyfini.jpg
http://www.cyc.com/

Cycorp's mission statement is "Cycorp's vision is to create the world's first true artificial intelligence, having both common sense and the ability to reason with it."

The article where I discovered Cycorp was LA Indymedia. At an article where an activist arrested at the link below, they said that Cycorp was harassing activists online
http://la.indymedia.org/news/2004/05/110415_comment.php#112342

I do not know how true it is, but I do not trust the US government anymore than I would Adolph Hitler if I was a Jew, or Ariel Sharon if I was a Palestinian.

The true question becomes, when our overlords, those masters of closeness to their invisible deity and their loads of looted money from the US Treasury, when those overlords are throwing into a larger and larger prison population, will we be able to fight back.

The answer: By ourselves, an unequivocal "No". We should try to make alliances with America's staunchest enemies, and I mean true enemies, as many of their enemies are not enemies at all, but part of their equation to have us fight our common brothers over seas so they can make a fortune and get rid of threats to their old-fashioned dynasty.

Support the right of North Korea to own nuclear weapons. Support the right of all to own any weapons to defend ourselves from the growing enemy presence that are the heinous and abusive factions of the wealthy dictatorships governments.

Their police are just their paid mercenaries or their brainwashed underpaid chumps.

Make no mistake, the USA government has destroyed the US constitution, if it ever existed, and they have also infiltrated every facet of government with low level criminals who cater to the top level murderers and billionaires.

Support the rising World Wide Socialist State. Spain told the USA to go to Haedes and pulled out of Iraq when they ousted their wealthy dictator president and replaced it with a Socialist government.

Beware, the USA government is ignoring all laws that stops their abus of us. They are also framing people, injectinng them with chemicals, and forcing felonies.

We are in many areas of the USA surrounded by our enemies and we should behave as Prisoners of War. Support North Korea, the David, versus the USA regimes in power, the criminal Goliath.

I realize the mainstream media always confounds the two, but AI and robots are two different things, especially AI of the flavor ("top-down" or knowledge-based) developed at Cycorp. If there's a reason to be wary of Cycorp, it's the possible application of their software at DHS and NSA to achieve "Total Information Awareness". If what you're worried about is robots, then you're barking up the wrong tree.

Hmmmm...

"Robots," in an AI context, are what drive TIA-like systems. Nessie's article gives the basics. Here below is a more comprehensive list of technologies and studies in the field (for folks who really *do*) wish to know...
