I had been thinking about something along these lines, though not worded as you have in this message yet.
What I would be most interested in at this point is a knowledge gathering system somewhere along these lines, where the main AGI could be centralized/clustered or distributed, but where questions and information would be posed to the Bot on each persons node and collected together. The system would remember any facts and domain that a person has contributed so any future unique questions could be posed to the knowledgeable expert users. This would allow a large amount of knowledge to be extracted in a distributed manner, keeping track of the quality of information gathered from each person as a trust metric, and many facts would be gathered and checked for truth. Mainly the system should have an ability to ACTIVELY go out in search of the answer, by chatting with known users to find and confirm any conflicting results. For instance, it would randomly ask me "Who is the highest paid baseball player?" and I would pass on that question... the system would put a lower score for any further baseball questions sent towards me, but based on my answering of other computer questions and ones about Austin, TX, it would be more likely to ask me questions about them. And only me and a couple other people here would get the questions about Austin, TX. Something along the lines of a higher quality Yahoo Questions, with an active component, and central knowledge base. I think the knowledge base is one of the most important pieces of these, and hope to start seeing some more of ppls ideas and implementations of KR db's.

My proposed message posting service allows anyone to contribute to its knowledge base, just like Wikipedia, so it could certainly contain some false or useless information. However, the number of peers that keep a copy of a message will depend on the number of peers that accept it according to the peers' policies, which are set individually by their owners. The network provides an incentive for peers to produce useful information so that other peers will accept it. Thus, useful and truthful information is more likely to be propagated. -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?&; _______________________________________ James Ratcliff - http://falazar.com Looking for something... --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?
