The same thing occurred to me while browsing this thread. We really want an AGI that can function with human-like ease in a simulated Earth-like environment for reasons of training and communication. But by no means should this be the limit of its abilities! You'd like an intelligence that functions with native casualness while embodied in VR but can make smooth transitions into entirely different modalities without the time it spends there biasing its behavior in other ones. I mean, you want an AGI to be a master of all modes and to be able to switch between them seamlessly, neither of which are particularly lauded properties of human intelligence. It kind of goes to reinforce the notion that strong AI will likely be strongly non-human. On 10/5/08, Ben Goertzel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> 3.
