We'll All African's aren't Black . That's for sure. And you, my friend, come off more as Obnoxious than Black. That's for sure, too. Try a little humility. It may go a very long way. Cheers, ~PM

I'm 57% African, 19% Ashkenazi, 18% Persian and 5% Native American. In other words, I'm kool, smart and sexy. Just think of a younger, smarter version of Barack Obama :) I don't think AGI is impossible. Ben G has some good Ideas. So do a lot of people. But they are missing pieces here and there.

So I'd appreciate you being yourself, and being real. You're reminding me a lot of Mike Tintner--only he said AGI couldn't be done becauseit is impossible, no one will ever know how. Now you're saying AGI can't be done because other people currently don't know how, but you do.

So prediction is a form of "completion the scene" and there is where creativity comes up, we predict the current scene based in our past observations (and completions) but since the scene may be new, we are applying past experience to solve new problems. Or something like that... Now I realize, doesn't this sound kind of Bayesian?

In other words, what is the processing structure for solving problems? I've read On Intelligence, 10 years ago, but have at present only a superficial understanding of his approach.
