Seems to leave out the main part -

how's it going to build the tower? incl.

where are the blocks?
how's it going to recognize them? find/gather them?
how's it going to combine/lay the blocks?
what concept of a tower is going to direct it?
does it need a concept anyway?

and - $64,000?

***how is this approach going to automatically apply to building new kinds of structures? {i.e. "take-off"]***

That's how I see you - always leaving out the main part :).

Subject: [agi] Uber big scary monster OpenCog diagram

For those who like ugly pictures... ;)

Here is a diagram, scribbled by me, showing some bits and pieces of
what the major parts of OpenCog are **supposed to** do, in the
specific context of
carrying out some simple physical and conversational actions involving
building stuff with blocks:

You'll have to zoom to read the writing, I guess...

It's extremely oversimplified, as it shows a couple dozen Atoms and
MindAgent-actions, in a situation where there would be at minimum
hundreds of thousands of Atoms and dozens to hundreds of MindAgent
actions per second.   So it's purely intended to be didactic and
evocative.

Note that this shows some stuff currently implemented & in use,
some stuff in the codebase but not in use yet, and some stuff that's
in the design but not yet implemented in code.

It'll get re-drawn in SmartDraw sometime in the not too distant future...
