Finally I see the light !!! Bowing to the weight of your crushing moral critique, I now see the immorality of my old ways!!! Nevermore will I preach the false doctrine of AGI !! >From this moment onwards, I will preach only patchworks, patchabilities, and the ineffable non-rational morphological mutabilities of raindrops !! I see now that only a "Bio-bot" made of real biological cells could ever achieve human-like intelligence, because these biological cells possess a unique capability to intuitively and imaginatively comprehend the non-morphological mutabilities and magickological beautabilities of the snowflakes, the raindrops, the trees and the pretty little flowers... not to mention Bambi, one must never forget Bambi !!!! ... I understand now that algorithms and computer software can never produce true intelligence, because they can only rearrange what has been provided to them by human programmers. Rather, true general intelligence must be produced by biological cells whose trans-rational shape-ological shimmerings are able to trans-logically enter into infinite varieties of cosmic dances in intimate communion with the biological and physical world with which they intersect !!! I hereby retract all my previous statements and writings about AGI.... I will abandon the OpenCog project and prostrate myself abjectly before the shrine of the most holy and meta-beauteous biological raindrop !!! Mike Tintner, you are my savior !!! ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-c97d2393 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-2484a968 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
