That is very pre-mature. Last I heard OpenCog was just a mish-mash of
ill-formed, vaguely defined ideas. =\

Custom hardware is always the last step in an optimization process
beginning with software that verifiably does what you want it to do but
not quite fast enough.

I have not yet seen anything that would lead me to even suspect that the
GOERTZEL has anything worth further research. As far as I can tell, it's
just a fairly advanced chatbot with a bunch of crap tacked on to the
sides. I am sure that would become painfully obvious if a demo were ever
made available.

Yay, the world is in such desperate need of another compiler
framework.... %P

I used to be obsessed with operating systems but then I got my ass
handed to me by PC Hardware and undocumented tools. =\

I would like to request some time on that server for the purpose of
giving the GOERTZEL the chance to prove my above comments wrong.
