Arnoud, I don't know how much help this will be
considering I am an amateur, like you. Your AGI system looks good to
me. I think we will find, in time, that many different approaches to AGI
will work, though some may be more efficient than others, and some may be easier
for us to communicate with. Your system is a low level implementation
without an initial high level architecture, which is supposed to emerge through
learning. This may be possible but may require a tremendous amount of
computational resources. I don't know if you have read my own feeble
attempt at AGI but it is complimentary to yours. http://home.mchsi.com/~deering9/sim_mod.html
Mine is a high level architecture without a low level implementation. If I
had the time and money I might try to integrate them.
I'm in the same time crunch you are,
wife, child, job. I too have gone through a Christian phase, just
like Holland, and ended up with atheism, just like you. Although, I don't
hold out much hope for your plan to create a super-intelligence and ask it,
"What is the meaning of existence?" Many different highly intelligent
people have come to completely contradictory conclusions regarding this question
and I don't see how merely increasing the intelligence decreases the number
of theories capable of explaining the observations. It may eliminate some
but also add new ones. Anyway, even though I share your lack of answers, I
am not disturbed by it. I'm thinking that the reason we are here is not
intelligent design or chance, but rather conceptual necessity.
Well, if there is anything the SAG can do to help
