John, It seems to me like to be "real AGI" you have skipped over the parts of Aristotle more applicable to AGI, like his metaphysics and logic. For example in the metaphysics he talks about beginning and end, causes, continuous/discrete, and this type of thing. At first glance it looks like your invention starts with ethics; why not build atop a metaphysics base? I'm not going to pass a judgement on your work but it seems like it's not going over well here with the crowd that has dealt with patent law. From my perspective I guess I don't like the idea of patenting some automation of Aristotle unless it was in a kind of production-ready state (ie., beyond mere concept stage).
