A resident of Novozelandki created a 3D-copy of your daughter

An animated girl’s body is hiding a detailed map of the human brain.

New Zealand programmer mark Sagar has created a 3D model of his own daughter, who can respond to the needs of the people and even play on a virtual piano.

Sagar, who started his career with modeling body parts for medical purposes, and later succeeded in CGI graphics for movies such as “king Kong” and “Avatar”, is now trying to “humanize” the artificial intelligence.

“Ever since I was 20-something years old, I was constantly thinking about how can the computer become more intelligent, can have consciousness. We want to build a system that learns not only for themselves, but who are motivated to learn and interact with the world. So I put this crazy task of trying to construct a computer model of human consciousness” – he said.

This idea formed the basis of the project BabyX which Sagar used photos own 18-month-old daughter at the time. In the early stages of the project a virtual child that exists only in the computer might react to the actions of the people nearby.

The child was shown a card with simple words like “Apple” or “ball” and if she answered correctly, and was very proud of her, she was glad if was mistaken, and she was reviled, she was upset.

Since then, Sagar has perfected his model: now it is not just a “floating head”, and a full body, sitting in a chair, and knows how to play the piano. And if it gets bored, it stops playing.

In addition, he can send her a virtual dose of serotonin, oxytocin and other chemicals, activating virtual neuroreceptors.

“You can get real-time look at how virtual virtual BabyX brain releases dopamine, lighting up certain areas of the brain and stimulating the appearance of a smile on her face,” writes Bloomberg Business Week.

Mark Sagar was able to put his ideas on a commercial footing: he founded the company Soul Machines, which have already created a robot assistant named Nadia. Vote for her for 15 hours were recorded by actress cate Blanchett. Sagara, the company has developed a robot commissioned by the National Agency disability insurance, which plans to use it for online help more than 500 thousands of people with disabilities.
