Most attempts have failed miserably. Is it because we don't understand how our own minds (brains) work? Or is there something more profound we are missing?

One problem is the idea of 'common knowledge', that is, things a young child understands, that computers have no concept of.

Absolutely. Man's goal to create artificial life, coupled with the increasing power of computers, will ultimately lead to intelligent machines. But, since the cost is so high for research, etc, it will still be a long way off. As a capitalist society, it has to earn money in order to be viable, and right now there just isnt alot of money in a computer that can act human. Once robotics works out all the intricies of human motion, then it may be a bit more useful to have things like robotic soldiers which can think, household androids, etc. Follow the money, thats where it goes.

It turns out that the human mind (brain) is much, much more complicated than we thought 25 years ago. There are too many variables, parallel paths, etc. to mimic them with a computer. RAM would have to be astronomical. It is just way too complex.
p.s. one of the speculative fiction writers long ago posed that establishing a true artificial intelligence, that would think on a human level and be stable would be impossible. Because once a machine became self-aware, and as intelligent as a human being it would realize that it could never be human and suffer the electronic equivalent of a psychotic break, or "mental" collapse.

Well, all you have to do to answer this question is look around this site. I would say probably 50% or so are about MySpace. The other 50% are just plain stupid. No one can create a grammatically correct sentence or even spell simple words anymore. We should all pray that computers do not become self-aware or we humans will be toast!!

actual AI has already been done and is done each and each and every of the time. Language acceptance software, autopilots in airplanes, installation software, computerized factories, even merchandising machines have AI programming. Its a comic tale amoung AI programmers that AI somewhat skill "virtually applied" because each and every time they positioned one out in the marketplace human beings dont evaluate it AI anymore. An wise robotic is one which knows that the shortest route from A to B is a immediately line, and such issues as that. Having the intelligence had to get a job done. Now in case you recommend AH (virtually human) then thats yet another tale. the appropriate social gathering of it really is in video games. a pc opponent in a conflict pastime that continually does the wise element (going from A to B in a immediately line) isnt a lot of an opponent. To be a mission it ought to each and every in certain situations flank, each and every in certain situations sneak round and attack from the rear, and many times do something thoroughly stupid that may artwork merely because you didnt assume something that develop into so stupid. Its a comic tale amoung pastime AI programmers that as an instance AI into AH you need to promote off lots of the Intelligence and upload Randoms. which will be actual of all AH projects. In factors of creativity, paintings, music, and so on then we can continually be previous to the gadget.

I dont think we can ever achive that in near future. Because human mind is a so complicated one to be recreated. The complications of the mind has not even open to the parapsychologists who are researchers of the complications of the mind. So what makes yu think that such complicated thing can be attained by any other means . Idont think so even in my wildest dreams

the problem is finding worthy applications for its use.
Did you watch the DARPA challenge?
