Marvin Minsky

Marvin Minsky (August 9, 1927 – legal death January 24, 2016) was an American cognitive and computer scientist concerned largely with research of artificial intelligence (AI), co-founder of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AI laboratory, and author of several texts concerning AI and philosophy. Minksy was a member of Alcor’s Scientific Advisory Board. Officially, Alcor "neither confirms nor denies" that Minsky was cryopreserved. However, the case summary for Alcor patient A-1700 contains details that indicate that Minksy may be A-1700.
