Mike, 

 

are you making progress in creating an AGI machine? Or you think it is
impossible?

You still haven't given a problem example - and never will.

 

You can neither start with a set nor as you imply end with - "learn" - a
set, when you are dealing with real world problems.

 

You have been talking prior to this about sets - causets/posets et al -
being crucial to how the brain or an AGI solves problems.

 

They have nothing to do with real world problems.  And absolutely nothing to
do with any classic, major creative problemsolving - like creating
programs/software, solving mathematical theoretical problems, creating
anything in the arts, sciences or technology. You may create a set as a
solution to a software problem, but no set solved the problem in the first
place.  (There would be no such thing as the "creative agony" if there were
any truth to that).

 

So next time you mention EI, remember it stands for Evidentially Impossible.

 

If you did wish to discuss this, we can take any software creation problem
you like, and you will find no set of any kind, however you care to twist or
sophisticate the concept. Real world problems are like, and include,
detective problems - there is never a formulaic set of suspects.
