Disambiguate- 1. Move from starting point A to either B or D 2. Move from either A to B or take another option D I feel we should practice unambiguous speech with each other so we can have some hope of conversation with machine intelligence. The less guess it has to do about what we actually meant, the more productive the dialog can be. It helps between people too. humorous example: My wife and I had finished a discussion about various ways to contain the dog in our yard. After a long pause, I asked, "How would you feel about fencing in our yard?" She threw me a shocked expression and asked, "Are you challenging me to a duel?" I laughed, "I meant: putting a fence around the yard, she understood: a sword fight with rapiers" ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=231415&user_secret=fabd7936
