I think so, if I understand you correctly, you're agreeing with me that it's not feasible to go directly from S to a full von Neumann or Turing machine; so you propose concentrating on S, and then building a version of D that will be limited in the way we humans are, with the idea that because humans are useful despite those limits, so will your S-oriented AI be useful? ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=101455710-f059c4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
