Hi Ben, --------------------- "A recent approach is a revival/extension of the idea of AGI as an artificial scientist. In mandating fully embodied autonomous learning of the verifiably a-priori unknown, it presents an onerous technical obligation on AGI designers. This technical burden does, however, purchase the benefit of formally revealing the presence of all the cognitive faculties necessary in human level intelligence. Its deliverable 'laws of nature', however contrived and simple, are deeply novel (to AGI, designers and testers) and double-blind testable in a way that removes humans from any part of the ultimate scientific proof of AGI. Any embodied AGI contender can submit to the testing, thereby offering the possibility of a formal testing facility divorced from the activities of all designers (Hales, 2014). The future of this idea remains to be seen."

I'd have thought the ideas deserved of a mention as a recent entry on the scene. Am I sufficiently Shaw-unreasonable? regards, Colin On Tue, Dec 1, 2015 at 3:29 AM, Ben Goertzel <[email protected]> wrote: > > No new concepts here, I just wanted there to be a standard reference for > the topic... > > http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Artificial_General_Intelligence > > > > -- > Ben Goertzel, PhD > http://goertzel.org > > "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one > persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
