There is no way human conscious thought is algorithmic – algorithms don’t have 
fundamental & continuous problems concentrating, algorithms don’t produce 
disordered, distracted, excessive, deficient, repetitive, or continuously 
deviating streams of thought. On the plus side human thought is endlessly 
creative, and algos aren’t creative at all.

Are you prepared to dump algos and look for some other kind of programming? 

No I thought you wouldn’t be prepared to do that. End of discussion?

Subject: [agi] Steps of Thought Will Follow the Discovery of Forms-of-Thought

One of the problems I have had with the theories that are discussed in AI/AGI 
discussions, is that they do not seem to answer the most basic of questions.  
They never seem to be clearly related to the way we actually think.  There are 
explanations for this.  First of all computer programming is not the same as 
our personal experiences of thinking. This leads to some fracturing of the 
principles of thought.  Secondly, most of us have a sense that  we have to 
understand the underlying form-of-thought in order to understand how thought 
might take place.  And this is probably true.
