The purpose of YKY's invocation of Helen Keller is interestingly at
odds with the usage that appears in the Jargon File.
In choosing Helen-Keller mode, I'm not deliberately trying to make
things harder for the baby AGI, it's

Thought that was funny, goodbye :)
Is there an entry for Anne Frank?

Having a vision-assisted training process would be extremely
compelling. Then the user can provide information relevant to
comprehending a scene as well as adding word/object associations.
Robust sight and sound processing are still kind of a frontier for
software, I think. A little good work in
YKY,
How much will you focus on natural language? It sounds like you want
that to be fairly minimal at first. My opinion is that chatbot-type
programs are not such a bad place to start-- if only because it is
good publicity.
I am imagining two ways of entering knowledge: (1) people talk to the
I got it from an internal source.

Pei,
Would you mind sharing the link (that is, if you found it on the Internet)?
Thanks,

It still needs work. I found this undated (2004 or later) white paper which is
apparently not linked from cyc.com.
Yes, the big weakness of the whole Cyc framework is learning. Their logic
engine seems to be pretty poor at incremental, experiential learning ... in
linguistics as in every other domain.
I don't think they have a workable approach to NL understanding or
generation ... I was just pointing out

Recently, someone on this list (I apologize for not making a note of this
person's name) raised the question whether we might find a shortcut to
AGI. The author went on to opine that, because the problems associated
with achieving AGI had been considered by some of the world's most

Sorry, but in my drug-addled state I gave the wrong URI for the Dangerous
Knowledge videos on YouTube. The one I gave was just to the first part of
the Cantor segment. All of the segments can be reached from the link

The overview claims to be able to convert natural language sentences into Cycl
assertions, and to convert questions to Cycl queries. So I wonder why the
knowledge base is still not being built this way. And I wonder why there is no
public demo of the interface, and no papers giving
