Please consult the works of Marcus Hutter (Universal AI) and Juergen Schmidhuber (Godel Machine). These thoughts are not new. Yes, truly general AI is only possible in the case of infinite processing power, which is likely not physically realizable. How much generality can be achieved with how much processing power, is not yet known -- math hasn't advanced that far yet. Humans are not totally general, yet are much more general than any of the AI systems yet built.... -- Ben G ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=101455710-f059c4 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
