confronting the possibility that making a huge handcoded KB is just
the wrong thing to be doing..."
@Ben Goertzel:
I totally agree, couldn't be said better.
And I think we are all pretty sure that this approach is not the way to go,
which makes it a bit sad story also, as there was huge effort going into
this project.
@Jan Matusiewicz: Interesting discussion you started here, I will try to
capture the NARS-part here as this is the project I am involved in.
Your intiution about "imagination" is in line with mine, and it is very
important for me personally that our project captures some of its intiutive
characteristics.
As Ed Pell said, NARS would reason about multiple scenarios that are
suggested by different combinations of evidence from its past experience,
but not exhaustively, but as much as its current aviable resources allow:
("how much time do I have for my decision or answer, and to consider maybe
only on the surface less appealing alternative scenarios?", "how much
memory can I sacrifice to consider the relevant details of the different
options?"):
If the system would have to make a decision that depends on different
beliefs about outcomes of this experiment, then it would tend to consider
its by experience highest supported beliefs,
deciding in such a way that it will tend to strive to these outcomes that
are most desired and most believed to be reachable.
@Noah Bliss: Nice, congratulations! I also saw the pattern mining
demo Shujing Ke created, cool stuff!
Best regards,
Patrick
