Brad: By definition, an expert system rule base contains the total sum of the
knowledge of a human expert(s) in a particular domain at a given point in
time.  When you use it, that's what you expect to get.  You don't expect the
system to modify the rule base at runtime.  If everything you need isn't in
the rule base, you need to talk to the knowledge engineer. I don't know of
any expert system that adds rules to its rule base (i.e., becomes “more
expert”) at runtime.  I'm not saying necessarily that this couldn't be done,
but I've never seen it.

In which case - (thanks BTW for a v. helpful post) - are we talking entirely here about narrow AI? Sorry if I've missed this, but has anyone been discussing how to provide a flexible, evolving set of rules for behaviour? That's the crux of AGI, isn't it? Something at least as flexible as a country's Constitution and Body of Laws. What ideas are on offer here?
