I previously said:
In a way the multiple-modal-sensory-data-is-necessary-for-agi guys are
right, just not in the way they think.  Multiple-referential-data is
necessary for agi.
---------------------------------
The reason multiple-sensor-modalities would be useful is because they can
detect multiple *kinds* of Input data that can be used in recognition.
This reasoning helps move the significant issue towards the more abstract
and it can help us (who get it) to understand why some people just keep
insisting that data from multiple sensor modalities is necessary for agi in
spite of the lack of any outstanding evidence for the opinion.
