Printedonacid-freepaper SpringerInternationalPublishingAGSwitzerlandispartofSpringerScience+BusinessMedia (www.springer.com) Preface Almost exactly 60 years ago, in the summer of 1955, John McCarthy coined the term “artificial intelligence” (AI) to refer to “the science and engineering of making intelli- gentmachines”inaproposalforasummerresearchprojectatDarthmouthCollege.The subsequentDarthmouthConferencesof1956areoftencreditedwiththecreationofthe field of AI. But as the problem proved much more difficult than anticipated, disillu- sionmentsetin.Thegoalofcreatingmachinesthatcouldthinkatalevelcomparableto humanswassetasidebymany,infavorofthecreationof“smart”applicationsthatwere highly successful in specialized domains. Since then “AI” and “narrow AI” have become almost synonymous and the development of systems showing more general intelligencein a wide variety ofdomainswas seenas unattainable. Butafterhavingbeenlargelyignoredformanydecades,thelasttenyearshaveseen a small resurgence in the pursuit of what we now call artificial general intelligence (AGI). While the contributions of narrow AI to science and society are undeniable, manyresearcherswerefrustratedwiththelackofprogresstowardthelargergoalofAI. Armed with novel technology and ideas, a new optimism has taken hold of the community. Creating thinking machines may be a daunting task, but many people todaybelievethatitisnotimpossible,andthatwecantakestepstowardthatgoalifwe keep our eye on the ball. TheAGIconferenceseries,organizedbytheAGISociety,hasbeenthemainvenue forbringingtogetherresearchersinthisre-emergingfield.Forthepasteightyearsithas facilitated the exchange of knowledge and ideas by providing an accessible platform for communication and collaboration. This volume contains the research papers accepted for presentation at the Eighth Conference on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI-15),held duringJuly 22–25, 2015,inBerlin. Atotalof72research papers were submitted to the conference, and after desk rejecting 14 (19 %), each paper was reviewed by at least two, and on average 2.93, Program Committee members. We accepted23papersfororalpresentation(32%)aswellas19posters(26%),ofwhich one was withdrawn. Inaddition to these contributed talks, theconference featured JürgenSchmidhuber, directoroftheSwissAIlabIDSIAinLugano,andFrankWood,associateprofessorat the University of Oxford, who gave invited keynote speeches on “The Deep Learning RNNaissance” and probabilistic programming with the Anglican language. José Hernández-Orallo, professor at the Polytechnic University of Valencia, gave a tutorial ontheevaluationofintelligentsystems.AnothertutorialwasgivenbyAlexeyPotapov, professorattheITMOUniversityandSt.PetersburgStateUniversity,ontheminimum descriptionlengthprinciple.Athirdtutorial,givenbyNilGeisweiler,CosmoHarrigan and Ben Goertzel, described how tocombine program learning and probabilistic logic inOpenCog.MartinBalekandDusanFedorcakpresentedavisualeditorfordesigning the architectureof artificial brains.Finally, theconference also featured workshops on Socioeconomic Implications of AGI and on Synthetic Cognitive Development and VI Preface Integrated-Distributed Agency, organized in collaboration with the Global Brain Institute at the Free University of Brussels. Finally, many thanks are due to those who helped organize the conference, includingJanKlauck,JoschaBach,andmanyothers;andtotheconference’ssponsors including Kurzweil AI, Keen Software House, and the OpenCog Foundation.
