John, you've been doing a great job as moderator. The thing about the AGI list, as well as the AGI conferences and Ben Goertzel's other creations, is their openness. No one really knows how we will get to AGI, and openness avoids foreclosing good ideas that may not be fully developed.
I vote for suppressing racist ravings, but allowing Mentifex and other merely "wrong" ideas. Best wishes, Bill On Fri, 14 Feb 2020, John Rose wrote:
I think with regards to suppressing people what we can do if there is a problem we can call a vote. The threshold should be high to allow for alternate viewpoints not 2/3 but say 4/5. If >80% of respondents within 1 week want a subscriber suppressed then they get suppressed. Something like that so when (or if) I get some time I'll evaluate a voting website. That way next time Mentifex starts spewing his BS about his fake AGI then we vote him off. Can't think of a better idea...
