Well, the intent of my statement is this: Maybe somewhere in the Cyc
knowledge base there's the assertion Eat(Cats, Mice) or equivalent,
but if you show Cyc a picture of a cat, a picture of a mouse, then two
candidate successor pictures, one of a mouse stuffed into a cat's
mouth and the other of a cat and a mouse talking philosophy over a
pint of beer, and ask Cyc which is the more likely successor state, it
won't have a clue. That's what I mean by grounded, and it's the reason
Cyc isn't useful.
