I think because an AGI needs to communicate in languages that people already
know. I don't understand how artificial languages like Lojban contribute to
this goal. We should focus our efforts instead on learning and modeling
existing languages.
As discussed on this list not long ago, the points would be that
-- communicating with an AI in Lojban may be one way to give the AI
the conceptual background needed to understand ordinary human language
-- there is plenty of stuff, like math and programming, that can be
taught to an AI better in Lojban than in English or any natural
language
My own plan is to eventually teach Novamente in English and Lojban++
in parallel, in the context of its interactions w/ human teachers in a
3D simulation world...
