Patent on "Emotional Emulation"

[Kris Schnee]

"Patent #7,089,218:
"Method for inclusion of psychological temperament in an electronic
emulation of the human brain
"This invention incorporates temperament, emotion, feeling, personality
and prior experiences to accurately emulate a human's thought and
decision processes. Without these, it is highly unlikely that any system
or neural network can accurately emulate real human beings . . . Unlike
other approaches to the emulation of human thought, this invention
readily permits the influence of cultural, religious and political views
and beliefs that are unique to the personality being emulated . . .
comprising a set of four temperament-specific parameters, each
representing one of the four classical personality temperaments,
Choleric, Melancholy, Sanguine and Phlegmatic."


Hasn't ALICE pretty much done that already?

Take a look at some of the others too.  They've pretty much patented all areas of AI

But then again everything's been patented.  Patents are a joke.
