Watch this Google Tech Talk named “Computers versus Common Sense” for some insight about Cyc and “universal common knowledge computers”.

During the last take off event, which took place in April 28th at the marvelous universitary city of Coimbra, I had the chance to watch in the first row to João Carvalho presentation, and talk to him later. He is the responsible for the Palco Principal website - a community website that allows Portuguese-spoken bands to interact with users and vice-versa. If you are or understand Portuguese you can access his presentation in PDF format, or the recorded presentation, in MP3.
