Tony's 2D training world is a lot simpler than A2I2's, for now. [He is quite free to share details with you or this list, though.]
For one thing, his initial shape-world is perception only, involving no action! The simple stuff that we're going to test with it right now, does not involve action, and no advanced perception either, mostly just some aspects of cognition. We're going to meet in January to discuss the details of incorporating action into the shape-world (among other things)... I think that we'll spend some months playing around with very simple prototype worlds. Then we will want to have a really high-quality flexible shape-world framework, and at that point, it would be really grand to coordinate efforts with A2I2 and possibly other AGI projects as well. If Tony proceeds rapidly, that may be around mid-2003.... I think that it would be great to have a common testing framework for AGI system, involving 2D shape perception & manipulation, and the option simultaneous NL communication.... This would save AGI developers work, and would also provide a nice way to compare AGI systems with each other, and to allow various baby AGI systems to interact. -- Ben G > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > Behalf Of Peter Voss > Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 10:15 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [agi] Tony's 2d World > > > Hey Tony - are you on this list?
