Are you trying to buildyour universal machine? I read your paper at university. - Is it already being taught?- No. No. No, I was precocious. So, you theorised a machinethat could solve any problem? It didn't just do one thing,it did everything? It wasn't just programmable,it was re-programmable? Is that your idea behind Christopher? Human brains can compute large sums very quickly,even Hugh can do that, but I want Christopher to be smarter. To make a calculationand then to determine what to do next. Like a person does. Think of it. An electrical brain. A digital computer. Digital computer?

Yes You uh
00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.998
Are you trying to build your universal machine
00:00:05.421 --> 00:00:07.139
I read your paper at university
00:00:07.214 --> 00:00:09.387
Is it already being taught No
00:00:09.467 --> 00:00:12.016
No No I was precocious
00:00:12.999 --> 00:00:16.998
So you theorised a machine that could solve any problem
00:00:16.999 --> 00:00:18.271
It didn't just do one thing it did everything
00:00:18.035 --> 00:00:20.478
It wasn't just programmable it was re programmable
00:00:22.271 --> 00:00:24.023
Is that your idea behind Christopher
00:00:25.357 --> 00:00:29.533
Human brains can compute large sums very quickly even Hugh can do that
00:00:29.612 --> 00:00:31.535
but I want Christopher to be smarter
00:00:32.406 --> 00:00:36.331
To make a calculation and then to determine what to do next
00:00:37.369 --> 00:00:38.837
Like a person does
00:00:39.747 --> 00:00:41.249
Think of it
00:00:41.054 --> 00:00:43.003
An electrical brain
00:00:43.667 --> 00:00:45.135
