A forum that purports to be invested in achievement of real AGI as a target, one would expect that forum to a multidisciplianry approach on many fronts, all competing scientifically for access to real AGI.
I think this group is pretty diverse. No two people here can agree on how to build AGI. > Gamez, D. 'Progress in machine consciousness', Consciousness and Cognition vol. 17, no. 3, 2008. 887-910. $31.50 from Science Direct. I could not find a free version. I don't understand why an author would not at least post their published papers on their personal website. It greatly increases the chance that their paper is cited. I understand some publications require you to give up your copyright including your right to post your own paper. I refuse to publish with them. (I don't know the copyright policy for Science Direct, but they are really milking the "publish or perish" mentality of academia. Apparently you pay to publish with them, and then they sell your paper). In any case, I understand you have a pending paper on machine consciousness. Perhaps you could make it available. I don't believe that consciousness is relevant to intelligence, but that the appearance of consciousness is. Perhaps you can refute my position. -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=117534816-b15a34 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
