Re: [agi] Marcus Hutter's lossless compression of human knowledge prize

Yellow is the state of reflecting light which is between two specific frequencies.   Hot is the state of having a temperature above some set value.   It takes examples to recognize/understand when your sensory apparatus is reporting one of these states but this is a calibration issue, not a learning issue.   Note also that hot has tremendously varying values (based upon individual and context) and that where yellow begins and ends is an artifact of the design of our visual systems. ----- Original Message ----- From: James Ratcliff To: agi@v2.listbox.com Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 1:23 PM Subject: Re: [agi] Marcus Hutter's lossless compression of human knowledge prize I dont believe "yellow" or "hot" can either be learned verbally.

An unusual claim... do you mean all knowledge can be learned verbally, or do you think there are some kinds of knowledge that cannot be demonstrated verbally?
