 OpenCog never did have a knowledge base or any useful applications or
experimental results since the 2011 timeline forecast human level AGI
in 8-10 years.

My colleagues and I have used OpenCog w./in a bunch of useful
applications but I don't have time to go through the list here

It's true there have been no super big commercial successes or widely
rolled out products

Everyone working on AGI has failed so far... everything fails until it
succeeds...

Honestly this is the first re-architecture / major rethinking of
OpenCog since 2008

I had Webmind in 1997, Novamente in 2001, OpenCog in 2008 , and now
Hyperon in 2020/2021 ... those are the major revisions of my approach
to AGI so far....  Of course the process of R&D naturally involves a
stream of new ideas w/in one's current main approach...

The global effort of course is inclusive of efforts like those by
OpenCog, Deep Mind etc. that contribute potentially key components to
the overall emerging global general intelligence..
