I am trying to formalize IT knowledge and legislation in OpenCog but I experience hardship - OpenCog style and idioms is so far remote from the UML, Object Oriented programming and even from the Description Logics (ABox and TBox) (Protege). Maybe it can be good idea to develop an open source application that can serve for: - to be compendium of the patterns, best practices and good styles of writing Atomspaces and expressing knowledge in Atomspaces; - that can test the OpenCog infrastructure and reveal what should be done to extend it; - that can raise visibility of the project generally and attract more contributors.
There is Hanson Robotics with its proprietory knowledge base (perfect application), and I pursuing my goal to create legal QA system (and beyond), but those are closed source efforts. Maybe it can be good idea to find other application area in which the community can create truly open source application. I can work on it, I just need an idea. One idea can be medical application, medical QA system but it is domain that I don't like for personal reason (although I would like to work on psychotherapy and AI liek https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/man-talks-machine/201404/artificial-intelligence-and-the-future-therapy and http://bigthink.com/hybrid-reality/the-freud-apps-ai-virtual-life-coaching-and-the-future-of-psychotherapy and already existing application https://x2.ai/). Maybe there can be even open source Watson? There is problem with such open source application - every good idea is captured by businesses and becomes closed source and no idea is left for the open source application. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "opencog" group.
