To be honest, Richard, I do wonder whether a sufficiently in-depth

about AGI between us would result in you changing your views about the CSP

solutions.

and would
require you to first spend 100+ hours studying detailed NM materials, so
this seems
unlikely to happen in the near future.
Well, I am not by any means hostile to the idea that Novamente could be
built in such a way as to solve the CSP. It is all a question of
methodology and flexibility, which I don't *think* is there, but I could
be wrong.
I am heavily focussed on my own design at the moment, but when you talk
about the need for 100+ hours of studying detailed NM materials, are you
talking about publicly available documents, or proprietary information?

This is true, but not important to my line of argument, since of course
I believe that a problem exists (CSP), which we have discussed on a
number of occasions, and your position is not that you have some
proprietary, unknown-to-me solution to the problem, but rather that you
do not really think there is a problem.
