The evidence is described in my paper which you haven't read yet.

I did glance at the paper and I don't think I will be able to understand your 
evidence.  Can you give me some clues using plain language.

For building AGI, my proposal is http://www.mattmahoney.net/agi.html
Unfortunately, I estimate the cost to be US $1 quadrillion over the next
30 years.  But I believe it is coming, because AGI is worth that much.  If
I use compression anywhere, it will be to evaluate candidate language
models for peers in a market that right now does not yet exist.
---------------------------------------------

Can you explain what you mean by the statement that you would use compression 
to evaluate candidate language models?

It is worth $1 million if you succeed, but I wouldn't waste my time on it.

I had given up on it as a waste of time, but I decided to look more carefully 
at it on what I considered the slight possibility that the Lord had actually 
indicated that I would be able to do it.  I have evidence now that I did not 
have 7 months ago that it may actually work.
