I guess people want intelligence to be useful, not just complex :-) This raises a question. Suppose you had a very large program consisting of random instructions. Such a thing would have high algorithmic complexity, but most people would not say that such a thing was intelligent (depending on their favorite definition). But how would you know? If you didn't know how the code was generated, then how would you know that the program was really random and didn't actually solve some very hard class of problems? -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=231415&user_secret=fabd7936
