Very truly your Mentifex ("Mindmaker") has been coding the Mens Latina artificial intelligence (AI) in JavaScript today at the http://ai.neocities.org/Abracadabra.html website. Over the last week, the conceptual flag-panel of quasi-neuronal associative tags has been expanded from fifteen gradually accumulating tags to twenty carefully selected items enabling complex thought in Latin.
A few months ago I wanted to include the original Latin of Occam's Razor as part of the innate knowledge-base, but the mental infrastructure was insufficient. The expanded flag-panel changes things. For a B.A. classicist and quondam Latin teacher, it is terribly exciting to be coding these Latin gems of the ages into an AI Mind. The following two examples of partial success make me want to stop coding for the day and upload this progress-report. This first transcript shows how the Mens Latina associates from the input of "entia" to the core of Occam's Razor.

I just wanted to share with y'all (vobis omnibus) the state of the art.
