That's a bogus dichotomy.  Obviously our goal is to engineer something that
can effectively and efficiently re-engineer itself, using its own
inference.

DeSTIN is a deep learning architecture for perceptual data processing,
which was developed by Itamar Arel at the University of Tennessee, and is
going to be integrated into OpenCog to serve as its "perceptual cortex"
....  It has nothing to do with centers of gravity, although it does use
clustering as one sub-algorithm, and these clusters have centroids --
perhaps that is what you are thinking of.
