Memetic algorithms sound like more of the same. Maybe I am not getting it but it doesn't sound like it is going to lead to anything that less formalized methods haven't been able to do. It seems obvious to me that a memetic algorithm is not a breakthrough method that would make an AGI program feasible.
Powerful machine intelligence programs will likely be memetic algorithms. Just as genetic algorithms attempted to mimic organic evolution so memetic algorithms are inspired by cultural evolution. Rather obviously, it's cultural evolution that will lead to machine intelligence. However, part of why cultural evolution reached take-off point is because humans have big brains. So, attempting to emulate the process in machines leads to a bit of a chicken-and-egg situation. -- __________ |im |yler http://timtyler.org/ [email protected] Remove lock to reply. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
