Hi,
I think/suspect that Hawkins' theory is that every (useful) concept, no matter
how abstract, is rooted in spatiotemporal pattern recognition, and that
therefor there is no real distinction between spatiotemporal pattern
recognition and cognition.
In his theory every concept is a

You seem to be confusing Novamente with Richard Loosemore's system...
No, I don't think so . . . . I know that I know nothing about
If this doesn't seem to be the case, this is because of that some concepts are

unified system (and fragmentary implementations that show that some of
the aspects do work),
That's a lot. Would you be willing to share any of it on a

Without common
