This course introduces the problems and proposed solutions in the emerging field of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). The description is organized around an AGI project, Non-Axiomatic Reasoning System (NARS), which is an attempt to provide a unified model of intelligence. During this course, many problems in artificial intelligence and logic will be analyzed and discussed. Many issues in psychology and philosophy will be addressed, too. Beside the covered knowledge, the students will also learn how to carry out interdisciplinary study.The topics and lecture notes are here.
