Long article, but interesting. It sounds like he's built the input but not the output, the motor control. I don't think there is any convincing argument about what paradigms to use for strong AI / AGI since there isn't a working such thing yet. Some math-first approaches seem like they want to lose you with the formula, otherwise I like math....
