First time posting, my apologies if I'm making terrible blunders in etiquette. I'm looking for a quote, from a book I read years ago. I do not know the quote directly, but it talking about artificial intelligence, simulating brains and a group of scientists who upload a copy of a chimp brain. When the program is started, all the program does is scream and the scientist congratulate each other on their progress in artificial brain work.

I know it's not much to go on, but challenge go.

Haha great post newfriend! I believe the quote you're looking for is from The Bell Curve by Charles A. Murray and Richard Herrnstein.

Have a fantasmic day!

This is very familiar. If it was recent, perhaps it was from Robopocalypse?

I have a feeling it might be a Greg Egan quote.. permutation city maybe? I know that has a particularly good line where a human brain is simulated primitively and it says it's like being buried alive. I might be mixing these up.

That could well be--Permutation City is the only Egan book I've read, and that does sound like it could have been described in the very beginning.

Thanks for the effort! I've been scouring for it and I've not managed to track it down there. I believe the quote was in context of a student being present at this talk/presentation of the ai, shaking her--? belief in the area.

Not sure if half remembered context is going to jog any memories..

I'm racking my brain for any AI style books I might have read.. It's not in diaspora - another greg egan, maybe some Asimov? Clutching at straws here.

Not sure. Other AI-related works I've read that might ring a bell for you:

Altered Carbon
The Cookie Monster
Consider Phlebas
Rapture of the Nerds
Fire Upon the Deep

This exact thing happened in the movie Transcendence. Are you thinking of that?

Good grief you weren't joking!?

Shit, I fear you might be right... SO! Turns out it might not be hard sci fi, just johnny depp.
