Ben: I don't agree that solving vision and the vision-cognition bridge is *such* a huge part of AGI, though it's certainly a nontrivial percentage
Presumably because you don't envisage your AGI/computer as an independent entity? All its info. is going to have to be entered into it in a specially prepared form - and it's still going to be massively and continuously dependent on human programmers? Humans and real AGI's receive virtually all their info. - certainly all their internet info - through heavily visual processing (with obvious exceptions like sound). You can't do maths and logic if you can't see them, and they have visual forms - equations and logic have visual form and use visual ideogrammatic as well as visual numerical signs. Just wh. intelligent problemsolving operations is your AGI going to do, that do NOT involve visual processing OR - the alternative - massive human assistance to substitute for that processing? ------------------------------------------- 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=8660244-6e7fb59c Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
