It's certainly true that an AGI could be endowed with well defined goals. Some people also begin from an early age with well defined goals. However, you then need to look more carefully at where these goals originated. Children who have well defined goals about what they wish to do with their lives are often simply downloading these from parents. Similarly in the AGI case you could have high level goals artificially inserted by a human programmer. In both natural and artificial cases you could then ask whether these systems are truly intelligent, or merely acting as clever executors. ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=111637683-c8fa51 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
