Hi! Should we encode the basic cognitive procedures: - *check the understanding of concepts *(that can be done by the following activies - prediction concept, explaining concept, predicting goals regarding concept, recreating concept - as defined by Steunebring in AGI 2016) - *determine the unknown knowlege and issue queries (automatic scientici and artistic discovery) for gathering those knowledge from the environment* - *consciousness* (ability to understand itself and world, ability to formulate, estimate and change goals, subgoals and ability to define and execute plans towards achieving those goals. - *ability to experience emotions* (20 types of them, according to the personality as defined in Big Five factor model).
So - the question is - should we encode (e.g. as Atomspace rules) those basic cognitive procedures in OpenCog agent (AtomsSpace+MindAgents) or can we idly wait that such procedures automaticlly will emerge from the soup of atoms (nodes and links) when the atomspace will have just enough information (be it junk or something more structured)? My dream would be to create some small agent with these basic procedurs and let this agent to learn and develop autonomouse? Can this be possible? Of course - I mean only encoding the initial rules. Agent itself should be able to fine-tune or even redefine the meaning and actual content of "understaning", "consciousness", because even human being is just apporaching those notions via philosophy, arts, cognitive sciences, neuroscience. But the question still remain - should we encode at least the intial version of those cognitive procedures? I have heard about Eva chatbot and other Hanson characters - maybe those characters as OpenCog agents already have encoded such general cognitive procedures? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "opencog" group.
