To return to the old question of why AGI research seems so rare, Samsonovich et al. say ( http://members.cox.net/alexei.v.samsonovich/samsonovich_workshop.pdf)
'In fact, there are several scientific communities pursuing the same or similar goals, each unified under their own unique slogan: "machine / artificial consciousness", "human-level intelligence", "embodied cognition", "situation awareness", "artificial general intelligence", "commonsense reasoning", "qualitative reasoning", "strong AI", "biologically inspired cognitive architectures" (BICA), "computational consciousness", "bootstrapped learning", etc. Many of these communities do not recognize each other.' Could this be the case: That there are many investigators outside the AGI community who share the goals and many of the methods with AGI-ers?
