The two obvious prerequisites for starting – getting serious about -
any inventive project, are
1) an **operational definition**: you must be able to explain what
your machine will do - in this case: what AGI problems will it solve,
(and how will it diversify into solving more AGI prob lems)
An AGI system is a system that can detect interrelationships in the
environment and is capable of perceiving the environment by constructing
an internal representation of the environment by resolving abstractions
of previously detected relationships and refines that perception using
feedback from the sensory modalities. An AGI system must also be able to
construct motor actions based on a desired change in the state of the
environment through the resolution of abstractions related to motor
control. The system can achieve generality by omitting all constraints
on the types of things that can be abstracted.
2) a **proof of concept** – you must be able to give a practical
reason why your project will work – in this case how your project will
solve AGI problems.
My standard of proof is quite a bit higher, requiring an actual
technological artifact that exhibits the claimed property convincingly
on at least a toy problem.
My system will work because the number of abstractions in the system
grows with the logarithm of the input size, worst case being complex but
structured input. Assuming the search problem is algorithmically
solvable, then search will also be logarithmic (so finding something in
memory would be the logarithm of the logarithm of the input size).
Furthermore, the P-time of the search problem will be constant, as it is
in the brain. A system along these lines, completely divorced from the
legacy architecture (NO UPLOADS!!) can achieve the theoretical maximum
efficiency within only a few product generations.
So therefore I need a robotics lab. I need about $35,000 to build it;
but I have no job. =(
