At last! All of the complexity of human civilization reduced to a
simple equation. We are saved! The singularity is imminent!

Look, people were flaying me alive for not defining the problem. Defining use cases for AGI is just silly so I came up with a general definition for the problem.

There, I defined a part of the problem.

See? It's defined!!

So what do people do?

Complain that the part of the problem that I defined doesn't cover another part of the problem which I explicitly did not define. I am, after all, talking off-hand on a mailing list.

Now you are pretending that my formal statement of the problem, which people had been pestering me about, is actually a claimed solution. It is merely a formal statement of the problem.

Goddamnit, people! When are you going to produce anything other than absurdly inflated cost estimates?

hmmmmmmmzers, I just had a brainstorm about how I could develop a good candidate for f() without much additional hardware.

oops lost it. =P
