When we listen to music there are many elements that come into play that create our memory of how the song goes. If you take a piece of instrumental music, you have the melody, a succession of tones in a certain order, duration of each note in the melody, timbre, or tonal quality, (guitar vs

Would two AGI's with the same initial learning program, same hardware in a controlled environment (same access to a specific learning base- something like an encyclopedia) learn at different rates and excel in different tasks? Mike, To put my question in another way. Would you like to

I would say that the best way to simulate human intelligence with diversity and creativity is to create not one AGI but many. The only way to insure diversity and natural selection like our own evolution is to simultaneously create multiple AGI's so that we have a better chance of the
