I am not able to open tar either. But I am a little in awe by your dedication
to debunking me! Excellent work (I'm sure.)
The summary was a summary, like an abstract. It was not supposed to go into
too much depth but on the other hand I wanted to try to explain some of the
ideas that I have been thinking about so here and there I went down a short
path. It is a little like presenting the readers who do not know what you are
talking about with some toy problems, but I usually end up talking about
abstractions of the problems I am thinking about.
My own criticism was that it sounded like a lot of old stuff in new packages.
But in a way that is all any computer program is going to be. The issue is
whether these ideas can be used as a basis to create an actual program that
will work a little better than other contemporary AGI programs. So it won't
beat Watson at data mining and it won't work at a human level but I am hoping
it will be able to learn some simple ideas and - importantly - it will be able
to leverage this ability slightly beyond the current AGI complexity barrier.
I do not want to be dismissive of the work you did but you did not actually
point out any examples which you think it are too shallow. But I am looking
forward to seeing the linked summary. Why didn't you just send the html page?
Was it too long?Jim Bromer

Jim,
I made an effort to follow your comments. I used "Tomboy notes"
and created links to various aspects of the Jim Bromer theory.
After about two hours work, I came up with a linked set of files.
I've attached the files in a small tar file. If you unzip in a
directory and point your browser at the " Jim Bromer Theory.html
file" you can browse your "points."
As I attempted to consolidate and understand your words, I found
lots of "promising" terms but very little depth. This is evident
when you attempt to follow the links for more understanding. If
word poetics is the game, you might win :-) .

And your statement that I failed to adapt myself to
other people's comments and that that is an adaptation failure
is absurd. Every time I write a reply I am adapting
to someone's comments. So I guess if your original statement
still stands as is I will be pretty safe ignoring it.
Andi and the two Mikes are not going to be writing any AGI
programs. But you will be. We will be able to see who wasn't
seeing the bigger picture next year.
