Sorry but from now on I'm just taking a hard hard line on everything.
Anyone without accredited credentials in the areas they're talking about on
this list I will ignore or dismiss as crackpot.
Anyone publishing or saying anything about agi which hasn't been peer
reviewed in accredited journals will be ignored or dismissed as crack-pot .
Anyone making speculations about anything which go beyond hard data will be
ignored or dismissed as crackpot.
Fortunately, the AGI list as a whole does **not** intend to adopt this
policy ;-)
There is a lot of nonsense being said about AGI, to be sure. However,
extreme conservatism like this is IMO not the best solution.
Personally I find it useful to discuss speculative ideas before
spending a lot of time implementing them and gathering "hard data"
about them...
Jeez...
