happier person information age
This 14-year-old boy has created an artificial intelligence bot that will make you a happier person Information Age
What were you doing when you were 14 years old? Sean Le Van, from Aneheim in California, will put you to shame. The teenager has created a contextually aware, artifically intelligent bot that you can converse with on the web. The bot – which Le Van calls Acuman, an acronym for Artificial Chatting Utility Matching Algorithmic Nodes – acts as a personal assistant that responds to every-day language and learns information about a user's life and personality. Le Van used his own scripting language and natural language processing algorithms to create Acuman, which uses the data gathered from conversations to analyse and create categorised visual representations in the form of infographics.
