Yesterday it was just a patent. In fact, it is content-free nonsense. I could give you a box-and-arrow diagram describing the entire universe at the same superficial level of detail ... would that mean I was God? And would the USPTO then grant me a patent for System and Method for Managing All of Creation? You do not show the slightest sign of understanding how to build an AGI that behaves in a friendly way, or indeed in any other way. There is no mechanism in your patent. All you have done is write some Articles of Good Behavior that the AGI is supposed to keep on the back of its bedroom door and commit to memory while it is growing up. Richard Loosemore *** John replies Richard Yes - I consider the content of my patents as a TOE (restricted to the domain of emotionally-charged language) as diagrammed at: http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/fairhaven/Masterdiagram.html Virtually every category of affective language (from Rogets Thesaurus) is represented To the great advantage of all-inclusiveness...

MIke http://www.listbox.com John replies Aristotle's Metaphysics is 2500 years out of date (unlike his ethics) He thought the brain operated as a Radiator !! I do incorporate his principles of Inductive Inference within the title of my patent But philosophy is a shaky foundation, so I rather substitute the Science of Behaviorism as my primary foundation as described at http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/fairhaven/behaviorism.html Through these instinctual principles of operant conditioning, it even proves possible to extend and establish links to the physical realm (the neural organization of the brain) see http://www.forebrain.org Hope this helps John L --- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244id_secret=108809214-a0d121 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
