Yes it would be interesting to see what could be done on a small cluster of modern server grade computers. I like to think about the newer Penryn 45nm, SSE4, quadcore quadproc servers with lots of FB DDR3 800mhz RAM running 64 bit OS (sorry I prefer coding in Windows) using standard gigabit Ethernet quad NICs, with solid state drives, and 15,000 RPM SAS for the slower stuff, and a take maybe 10 of these servers. There HAS to be enough resource there to get some small prototype going. And look at next year's 8 core Nehalem procs coming out... Interserver messaging should make heavy use of IP multicasting. Then another messaging channel with the new USB 3.0... Supposedly USB 3.0 is 4.8 gigabits. > I would be interested in you Ideas for how to make a powerful AGI > without a > vast amount of interconnect.

Well I actually don't have the theory far enough to calculate interconnect metrics. But I try to minimize that through storage structure. What gets stored, how it gets stored, where it's stored, how systems are modeled, what a model is, what a system of models are, how systems of models are stored,.. don't store dupes, store diffs... mixing code and data, collapsing data into code, what is code and what is data? Basically a lot of intelligent indexing, like real intelligent indexing... I'm working on using CA's as universal symbolistic indexors and generators - IOW exploring a theory of uncalculated precalcs for computational complexity indexing using CA's in order to control uncertainty and manage complexity... Lots of addicting brain candy stuff...
