Mike, one of the big problems in computer science is the prediction of genotypes from phenotypes in general problem spaces. So far, from what I've learned, we haven't a way to "guarantee" that a resulting process is going to be creative. So it's not going to be "solved" per-se in the traditional sense of "hey look, here's a foolproof equivalency of creativity." I truly hope I am wrong. This is a good way to be wrong about the whole thing, I must admit. - Bryan ________________________________________ http://heybryan.org/ Engineers: http://heybryan.org/exp.html irc.freenode.net #hplusroadmap ------------------------------------------- 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
