YKY, I agree with your views, predicate logic is much more straightforward to work with, and I absolutely respect all the work and thoughts put into it. A problem within the AI domain is that Vision has not been solved yet. The existing and functioning algorithms are mainly specialised into sub

The system you are describing sounds very interesting. If it is a 'cheap' technique, able to work with consumer hardware etc, it may be just the thing we're waiting for. The Hawkins theory is indeed not tested on complex imagery but there are different teams working on it. What is so special to

I would like to make some very general comments on AGI. Marcus Hutter's AIXI shows that in a very general sense, the optimal behavior of a goal seeking agent at each point in time is to guess that the environment is simulated by the shortest Turing machine consistent with all observations so
