quote: "But if scientists are right about the potential of
today's research, emotion machines would force a debate that could
redefine intelligence, artificial or human, and shed new light on the
core of humanness--what it means to feel.
"Modern AI is offering us [a] realization that ... the essence of
intelligence is in our capacity to perceive patterns, deal with
uncertainty and operate successfully in the natural world,"
Movellan said. "Emotional processes may be a form of intelligence
more complex and important than we ever imagined."
