Jim, Last question. It sounds to me like you're attempting to write one program / application rather than a collection of applications that run in concert and act upon a knowledge base? Am I mistaken? ~PM

My opinion is that deliberation is a method where you can bring different kinds of knowledge to bear while trying to better understand a situation. Simpler reactions can be used for habit like responses which are made in reaction to familiar situations. However, I do not think that quick human level (or animal level) responses to complex situations are that feasible for me. I think deliberation will be easier for me. However, my idea of structured reasoning may allow the program to create simple algorithms (pasting bugless scriptlets together) in such a way that other concepts could have some kind of structured influence on the algorithm (that the program created) as it was running without having it mash up whatever reasoning it was doing. One of my criticisms of being too reliant on funnel reasoning is that useful information will be turned to mash and over cooked when the resultants of different kinds of concepts are combined. This is why I don't see differentiation as a significant problem. I am not going to be mashing analyses together. On the other hand this is why I see complexity as a major problem. Reasoning is going to take place on the basis of a lot of little pieces of information and not the extrusion of a big hopper at the end of a funnel-down decision process.

One should seriously take a look at Apple's SIRI since a system like that may evolve into an AGI if it is equipped with sufficient back end services (i.e., actions). It has a reasoner which I presume respondsto user requests in a rule based or case based manner and is tied into various service providers.
