RECENT UPDATES:

2/8/2003 added an in-progress piece I am writing which takes a look at how I came to the conclusions, opinions, and goals expressed in the material on this site, and elsewhere.  It’s tentatively titled ‘Beginnings: An outsider approach to artificial intelligence’.  Check it out :-)

Everything on this site (except the WTA, AI-depot, and EXI logos above, and the OA logo on the links page) is original content, created by me, and me alone.  All original content © 2002, 2003 by Jonathan Standley.  Most of the fonts used on this site are from http://www.larabiefonts.com/

 

You can do whatever you want with the ideas, designs, art, etc. you will find on this site.  By using my content, you agree to:

 

A)        Absolve me of any and all liability and responsibility arising from use of the content discussed above.

 

B) Give credit to me for my work. (If all you’re using it for is utilitarian purposes, than don’t worry about it; read the paragraph below for what I mean when I say utilitarian purposes.)  

 

Well that’s about it.  Except this:  Some of the art on this site is derivative, in the sense that source imagery was taken from the results of Google image searches.  However, nothing here is ripped off of someone else’s creative work.  All of said images are pictures of things that exist in the real world.  Copyright law may have a problem with this, but I bluntly don’t care.  These images were selected because I have neither the time nor resources to take my own pictures of cells, robots, places far from where I live, etc.  They were used for strictly utilitarian reasons.  If it really bothers you that your image is used, ask me and I will consider removing it.  Current intellectual property law hobbles cultural and scientific growth, and I will not follow such corporate-bought travesties such as the DMCA and the like.
