A big part of it, for me at least, is that I would rather be working on implementation details than writing up documents in the excruciating detail required to really make a bulletproof presentation. I have limited time, and writing about things for public consumption (rather than doing things) does not help me actually accomplish anything -- I don't need PR. Much better to have a killer demo, as Eugen would say. So I bite my tongue and make sure everything is polished, the systems are experienced, and any demo will be indisputably "killer". That said, I've kind of promised to several people that I would publish a document tree by the end of the first half of this year that starts to cover the technologies in detail, as well as some papers on some interesting tangential theory stuff that has little to do with AGI. Not enough to duplicate the implementation, but enough to make the underlying theory relatively transparent. Probably right after we're officially moved to Palo Alto. Links will be posted when it actually goes up; the majority of it hasn't been written yet. j. andrew rogers ------- To unsubscribe, change your address, or temporarily deactivate your subscription, please go to http://v2.listbox.com/member/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
