Hi,
I think an interesting goal would be to teach an AGI to write software. If I understand your explanation, this is the same problem.
Yeah, it's the same problem. It's a very small step from Lojban to a programming language, and in fact Luke Kaiser and I have talked about making a programming language syntax based on Lojban, using his Speagram program interpreter framework. The nice thing about Lojban is that it does have the flexibility to be used as a pragmatic programming language (tho no one has done this yet), **or** to be used to describe everyday situations in the manner of a natural language.... > How could such an AGI be built? What would be its architecture? What learning algorithm? What training data? What computational cost? Well, I think Novamente is one architecture that can achieve this.... But I do not know what the computational cost will be, as Novamente is too complicated to support detailed theoretical calculations of its computational cost in realistic situations. I have my estimates of the computational cost, but validating them will have to wait till the project progresses further...
