James:
This would risk factionalising the list and de-focusing it from GENERAL AI.
I'm of the view that different parts of an intelligent agent could be programmed differently, because of domain-specific knowledge. So my goal is more towards building an autonomous intelligent agent rather than a one-size-fit-all learning algorithm. Though I understand that some people here are interested in the latter.
Maybe we can create one forum specifically for "general AI".
Eugene:
Not enough critical mass by a couple orders of magnitude.
AI is fringe by today's standards, and you need a large initial
content feed to get the positive feedback loop started.
I've been talking on my list for a year, mostly about vision. We have ~1-2 posts per day, mostly by me though. Anyway they're complaining about the lack of multi-forums. My group is actually starting an autonomous agent project, so we need the forums to exchange ideas, perhaps also wiki-type pages.
AI of course is not fringe. Even "AGI" is getting mainstream lately!
Ben:
If you want to take the initiative to create an AGI Forum, that might
be interesting.
Personally I find it easier to participate in email lists than Forums,
but I know some people feel the opposite.
I prefer emails too, perhaps the forums can be made subscribable?
