I am surprised that this topic hasn't generated more discussion. I suppose the word 'structure' might be a little misleading because I am thinking about things like dynamic conceptual structures and the term 'structure' usually pertains to something that seems more permanent but I have tried to use other terms in the past and I haven't had much of a response with them either.
Aaron made a few interesting comments and I learned something from him because I began seeing myself use intuitive methods that might be seen like a first step to 'reflection' in computer programming when I was thinking about a logical system. I may have missed the significance of comments people made about programming reflection in the past but no one has ever taken the discussion to the point where we might discuss how some intuitive process like this might be used to leverage reasoning and insight. To my thinking this kind of thing must be essential and foundational to AGI. I think those of us who think about this stuff must have a head start on the guys who don't regardless of how far our programs have actually progressed. But it is not enough to get the problem, you have to start thinking about how you can leverage the kinds of 'structures' that would be needed in order to make these insights truly useful. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-f452e424 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-58d57657 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
