John, I *didn't* ask the thread question. And you're equally mistaken in the
rest of your post.
No one is directly addressing a problem which when solved will give their
machine general "take-off." If you disagree, provide an example.
Everyone is following the subtext of the thread question: "how can we adapt
what we already know to solve this creative problem?" Well, you can't.
Major creative problems are only solved by developing *new* ideas, not
adapting old ones.

Yeah, what you’re seeing in this discussion as in most discussions here
and
throughout AGI, is that almost no one has the slightest practical
understanding of what AGI entails – of what “general, domain-independent
learning capability “ involves.
It is known by some. A functional implementation is what is being worked on.
That involves source code and mathematics in which the Textual User
Interface for it alienates certain people reading these discussions that you
criticize so much.
You should know what "learning" is technically before you criticize
approaches to building domain-independent learning. And what general is and
the differences between domains and how to classify them with at least a
whimper of technicality.
YOU asked the question "Does Siri + Watson = AGI ?" of which we all know the
answer to, and you tell us that we don't what AGI entails. This attitude of
self-defeatism is extremely stale by now...
Just curios, Mike have you ever worked on an engineering team? And if so,
for how long? :)
John
