Could Quora be used to build a semantic AI?

Could Quora be used to build a semantic AI?

Would an AI be allowed to answer questions on Quora?

There is a topic for Quora Bots (Quora feature).  I messaged Quora founder Charlie Cheever in 2011 suggesting… a voluntary, opt-in “bot-zone” as a sandbox for question answering bot projects.  To a large extent working with question answering bots would depend on the as yet non-existent Quora API.  However, question answering bots may also conflict with the work of Quora founder Adam D’Angelo on his Vicarious (company)… “building software that thinks and learns like a human”.

What are the key challenges in designing/developing an effective question answering system?

Make no mistake, Quora co-founder Adam D’Angelo is widely reported to have invested in Vicarious (company) – to build “software that thinks and learns like a human”…. 

What are the most promising companies currently working on software solutions to the Strong AI question?

Quora co-founder Adam D’Angelo‘s Vicarious (company) is worth keeping an eye on.

>>Vicarious is developing machine learning software based on the computational principles of the human brain…. Powering this technology is a new computational paradigm we call the Recursive Cortical Network<<
