Hi all, I just sent the following email to the OpenCog email list ( [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
To avoid replicated discussion, I'd like to do any serious, detail scientific/technical discussion of OpenCog Prime on the OpenCog email list. So if you want to talk about OpenCogPrime in detail, please sign up for that list and let's chat there... I'm fine to do more general discussions on this list though. thx Ben ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ben Goertzel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, Jul 30, 2008 at 10:11 PM Subject: OpenCog Prime wikibook and roadmap posted (moderately detailed design for an OpenCog-based thinking machine) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, With some help from Dave Hart and Bruce Klein, I've posted some material online that I believe will be of interest to many of you ... all linked from http://www.opencog.org/wiki/OpenCogPrime 1) The biggie ... at http://www.opencog.org/wiki/OpenCogPrime:WikiBook you will find a 250-printed-page Wikibook giving a fairly thorough description of an AGI design called OpenCog Prime. This AGI design is a sister design of the Novamente Cognition Engine -- there are some differences, but there are a lot more similarities. My hypothesis is that, if we implement, test and teach this design, then we will have a human-level thinking machine, and ultimately more than that. It's a complicated design and to avoid me having to deal with a lot of naive questions, I'd prefer if folks would read the whole wikibook carefully before asking stuff. Informed discussion, of course, is very welcome. Although, I will be a bit distracted this Friday and Saturday due to being out of town at my grandfather's funeral ;-(( 2) Following up on the OpenCog Prime wikibook, I've also posted an OpenCogPrime Roadmap at http://www.opencog.org/wiki/OpenCogPrime:Roadmap This document basically outlines a series of steps that will lead to complete implementation of OpenCog Prime. Some thought has gone into the ordering of the tasks. It was a big decision for me to open up this design, but at this point I'm optimistic it will pay off. Together we can build a real AI ;-) Ben -- Ben Goertzel, PhD CEO, Novamente LLC and Biomind LLC Director of Research, SIAI [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must be first overcome " - Dr Samuel Johnson ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=108809214-a0d121 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
