FUNARTECH INC. JOINS IVADO

December 2019

Funartech Inc. (Funartech) and the Institute for data valorization (IVADO) are proud to announce a partnership agreement to create new ways of doing artificial intelligence (AI).

Funartech is developing a new hybridization of machine learning with operations research that opens up the door for many new applications of AI. In particular, Funartech will soon be launching an emotive bot that can autonomously change its emotions and even define by itself what an emotion is. Another groundbreaking project is the implementation of a truly intelligent algorithm that can autonomously improve its understanding of its environment. The system will be able to completely wipe out the initial information and knowledge that was provided to it. The idea is not to have it randomly replace some chunks of its internal memory but to “cautiously” decide to replace parts or even all of what it has learnt or been programmed to be/do.
