RE: Adaptive Intelligence Inc - Incubation
It's not a joke, Dmitry, and I'm not sure why you'd want it to be

Actually, Peter Voss is a very experienced businessman, as well as an
innovative AI researcher.

I don't think it's entirely clear at this stage what his new company will
turn out to be, but I won't be at all surprised if it comes out interesting
from many perspectives.

It's pretty easy to stand on the sidelines and laugh at other people who
have the guts to try to do exciting, interesting, risky things. Big deal.
No venture, no gain.

      Friends/ Futurist/ Thinkers,

      I've started a new company tentatively called 'Adaptive Intelligence
Inc'. The aim of the company is to develop and commercialize an effective
(and probably also the first) general intelligence software engine. I have
big plans for the company!

      At this stage I'm looking for staff, partners, and investors - as well
as any good technical or business advice.

      Positions that I'm trying to fill right now include programmers
(trainee, medium, and high-level) who are keen to be involved - if not
instrumental - in engineering artificial cognition. Because this project
covers totally new territory, they don't need to have AI experience, but
they do need to be bright and highly motivated. Equity options,
telecommuting, and part-time employment are possible.

      Investment opportunities cover a wide spectrum of possibilities.
Business plan details are available on request.

      Please contact me if you know anyone potentially interested in joining
the team, or have any questions or suggestions. Feel free to pass this on,
as deemed appropriate.

      Towards increased intelligence.

      Peter Voss
