WBAI has been promoting R&D on the WBA approach to create a human-like AGI by learning from the architecture of the entire brain for the benefit of the public as a non-profit organization.
The more advanced and complex AI becomes, the more AI should become human-friendly or congenial with humans in its behavior and values in order for better co-existence with us.
For this to be achieved, it would be a valid approach to make AI having architecture similar to that of our brain.
For benefits from advanced AI to be immense, it should not belong to particular organizations, but become a public good for all of mankind. We seek to realize that goal by promoting the joint development of advanced AI on brain architecture from a public standpoint.
Be a part of shaping the General AI Challenge and its goals. The Challenge is open to both individuals and teams.
