Ben, I hope you are going to keep a human in the loop.      Human in the loop scenario:   The alpha Novamente makes a suggestion about some change to its software. The human implements the change on the beta Novamente running on a separate machine, and tests it. If it seems to be an improvement, it is incorporated into the alpha Novamente.     Human not in the loop scenario:   The Novamente looks at its code. The Novamente makes changes to its code, and reboots itself. The Novamente looks at its code. The Novamente makes changes to its code, and reboots itself. The Novamente looks at its code. The Novamente makes changes to its code, and reboots itself. The humans wonder what the hell is going on.     Mike Deering.
