a: artificial intelligence ~
b: building a cathedral

What:

"Building an artificial intelligence is like building a
cathedral. The first cathedrals took generations, so most working on them would never see the final outcome. Those working on it took pride in their craft, building bricks and chiseling stones that would be placed into the Great Edifice. So, as AI researchers, we should think of ourselves as humble brick makers, whose job it is to study how to build components (e.g. parsers, planners,
learning algorithms) that someday someone, somewhere, will integrate into intelligent systems"

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
