YKY, How much will you focus on natural language? It sounds like you want that to be fairly minimal at first. My opinion is that chatbot-type programs are not such a bad place to start-- if only because it is good publicity.
I am imagining two ways of entering knowledge: (1) people talk to the system, and probabilistic/fuzzy knowledge about grammar is invoked to extract knowledge; (2) people enter facts and rules directly. Entering stuff directly would be like "programming" the AI, while talking to it would be like "teaching" it. One way of going about it would be to let each person create their own instance, which would have access to the global body of facts but would be somewhat separate. This would prevent people from contaminating the global knowledge base. Some sort of peer rating system could then allow knowledge from the best AIs to merge into the global KB. Of course, you will not want to do this if you want to avoid spending time on natural language and on coding such a system. --Abram On Sat, Sep 27, 2008 at 3:02 PM, YKY (Yan King Yin) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi group, > > I'm starting an AGI project called G_0 which is focused on commonsense > reasoning (my long-term goal is to become "the world's leading expert > in common sense").
