Pei In case you haven't noticed, you won't gain anything from trying to engage with the troll. Mike does not discuss anything. He states his opinions in many different ways, pretending to respond to those that waste their time talking to him. But no matter what points are raised in discussion with him, they will only be used as an excuse to produce yet another variation of his unchanged opinions. He doesn't have any technical programming or AI background, so he can't understand that type of argument. He is against the whole basis of AGI research. He believes that rationality is a dead end, a dying culture, so deep-down, rational arguments mean little to him. Don't feed the troll! (Unless you really, really, think he might say something useful to you instead of just wasting your time).
