Hi everybody, thanks for allowing me in here.

Hi everybody, thanks for allowing me in here.

I'm a french RES agent from Grenoble, and I provide translations of all docs from investigate.ingress.com to the French Xfaction community. I've been following Operation : Essex for months, and I intend to further my work by translating some documents and theories you guys bring in here.

    Hello, Josselin.
    I'm a RES agent from China and I did the same thing, that I used to translate the intelligence docs from investigate.ingress.com to my mother tongue.
    But I wonder if it is an infringement of copyright so I stopped my translation now.
    Can anybody here tell me what's the attitude of Niantic? Or do you know how to contact them? Thank you all!

    Lysine Liu Oh, I never even thought about it that way. As long as you don't claim it as your own, it shouldn't be a problem I think! I always link to the original PAC post FIRST LINE in my translations actually ^^

    I don't think it would be a problem to make things like that readable by as many as possible =)

    Is it necessary? Just use Google translate.

    Translation is most certainly going to be encouraged by Niantic. I know they have supported someone doing Japanese translations. It's a valuable service and is absolutely legal. Thank you to all translators for the service they provide to the global community. :)

    Ron Nielsen​ Google Trad is really a pain in the ass when it comes to symbology and stuff. PAC likes to use circonvoluting sentences, and Google Trad, at least EN to FR, is a real pain in the ass... And it gives me a way to be useful even without a job =D

    Ron Nielsen Google translate is, in my experience, a good starting point but any complex sentence structure or involvement of non-major language (such as Swedish or Turkish) will give quite often hilariously bad results.
    My wife is currently working translating a website from Swedish to German since they had only used Google Translate before and there are so many errors that make the text ambiguous.

so, general question.

so, general question... we know that ADA passed the "turing test", we also have many studies showing how the turing test can actually be gamed by very complex programming and in fact you can write programs to create the allusion of AI for many (the chinese room thought experiment).  At what point are we certain that she began acting on her own and has not been following a program and orders by someone else.  Are we certain that those orders that she delivered for Jarvis and others and even the Katalena pre Zurich encounters, were not done on the orders of some programming.  NOt to call ADA a gun, but how certain are we she is not?  How can we prove, beyond doubt, that she is truly a separate entity working on her own and not some other programming? I would like to call for the evidence and proof that ADA is a complete entity. That she is not following someone else's computer orders, that she has a consciousness (or not). http://niantic.schlarp.com/_media/investigation:cha...

Dear investigators, I have some questions for you.

Dear investigators, I have some questions for you. What brings you here? What is it that you are investigating? Something in particular? Everything in general? Or are you merely following the story while making clever remarks from the side? And what are your results? What did you discover so far? Also, what methods are you employing, generally speaking? I am not looking for collective answers, but individual ones.
