Peter has some technical info on his overall (adaptive neural net) based approach to AI, on his company website, which is based on a paper he wrote in the AGI volume Cassio and I edited for Springer (written 2002, published 2006).
However, he has kept his specific commercial product direction tightly under wraps. I believe Peter's ideas are interesting but I have my doubts that his approach is really AGI-capable. However, I don't feel comfortable going into great deal on my reasons, because Peter seems to value secrecy regarding his approach... I've had a mild amount of insider info regarding the approach (e.g. due to visiting his site a few years ago, etc.) and don't want to blab stuff on this list that he'd want me to keep secret...
