Description

OpenCyc is the open source version of the Cyc technology, the world's largest and most complete general knowledge base and commonsense reasoning engine. Cycorp, the builders of Cyc, are setting up an independent organization, OpenCyc.org, to disseminate and administer OpenCyc, and have committed to a pipeline through which all current and future Cyc technology will flow into ResearchCyc (available for R&D in academia and industry) and then OpenCyc.

Goals

1) Become a widely accepted and popular platform for the creation of AI applications; 2) enlist the help of thousands of Web users to exponentially grow the base of publicly-available, computer-usable knowledge; and 3) contribute to the creation of the Semantic Web.
