And I believe that it was a useful question, at least as far as I am concerned. It helped me to discover certain pragmatic methods that might help simplify the task of early (and of fringe) learning. Combining this with the ideas I read in the article about a fundamental theory of physics it makes a lot of sense. While an AGI program might start dealing with 'objects' that seem 'tangible', at the same time, the exaggerated, premature analysis of any details that could be examined (or imagined) without being tied into any obvious and effective relations between recognized objects, might end up being so inefficient that the program would not be able to gain any traction. There is nothing wrong with a detailed study, just try to find how supposed 'objects' might inter-relate (or how relations might be objectives), at the level of competency that you are working at. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
