This is like saying, for example it's late fall in the northern latitudes and it's 50 °F and you say to your friend "It's warm today." He says, "Agreed." Then it's mid-summer and it's 50 °F and you say to your friend "It's warm today." He says, "Disagreed. Why did you say that?" And you say "Fall is the protected category." ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T252d8aea50d6d8f9-M54787d2f951607f78e5f8896 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
