If you use standard database technologies to create indexes into the flat file of facts then you can navigate the file randomly and efficiently. I propose that you choose a format for your facts, then add facts to your "database" however you want.The important thing is that you have a representation that is accessible and searchable. ~PM

A "flat file" of facts would take forever to navigate - you would need some carefully designed structure to handle real-world complexity in real-time. Perhaps if you provided a few lines of example it would be more obvious what you are proposing.

One suggestion is that you compile language into a "database of facts" using a propositional representation. In addition, you convert all sensory input to the AGI into the same propositional representation. Then you do inferencing within and generate behaviors from the aforesaid representation. ~PM AGI | Archives | Modify Your Subscription -- Full employment can be had with the stoke of a pen.
