Reads like a thriller, such as 3 days to kill starring Johny Depp and Amber Heard... DARPAs, Memex Project: The Memex project takes its name from a 1945 article in The Atlantic titled “As We May Think,” by Dr. Vannevar Bush, head of the White House Office of Scientific Research and Development. Bush envisioned a “device” that could be used for finding and categorizing the world’s information, acting as a supplement for the human brain. “In a nutshell, Bush wanted to mimic how the human brain thinks, learns, and remembers information,” writes Motherboard. “Which is exactly what artificial intelligence researchers at the DoD and in Silicon Valley are trying to do now, to glean better insights from the unruly army of big data being collected by web giants and the military alike.” The Memex project is expected to run over the next three years, with proposals due in April.
