happen --- it is impossible for the project to fail. ;-)
Seriously, if it happens, most likely it is because the control
process is too complicated to be handled properly by the designer's
mind. Or, it is possible that the

Hi,
Just out of curiosity - would you mind sharing your hardware estimates
with the list? I would personally find that fascinating.
Mant thanks,

Well, here is one way to slice it... there are many, of course...
Currently the bottleneck for Novamente's cognitive processing is the

In my way of seeing things, when projects reach that "non

made in the beginning of the journey. That's a problem we cannot
avoid, because we all don't know precisely what it is that we must

Peter Voss mentioned trying to solve the wrong problem is the first place
as a source for failure in an AGI project. This was actually this first thing
that I thought of, and it brought to my mind a problem that I think of when
considering general intelligence theories--object permanence. Now, I

It's certainly not a waste of time in the general sense, especially if you're
going to be building a robot!
Ben, I take it you're using the word hypergraph in the strict mathematical sense. What do you gain from a hypergraph over an ordinary graph, in terms of representability, say?To return to the topic, didn't Minsky say that 'the trick is that there is no trick'? I doubt there's any single point of
