You make the implicit assumption that a natural language understanding system will pass the turing test. Can you prove this?
Furthermore, it is just an assumption that the ability to have and to apply the rules are really necessary to pass the turing test. For these two reasons, you still haven't shown 3a and 3b. By the way: The turing test must convince 30% of the people. Today there is a system which can already convince 25% http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/10/081013112148.htm -Matthias > 3) you apply rules such as 5 * 7 = 35 -> 35 / 7 = 5 but > you have not shown that > 3a) that a language understanding system necessarily(!) has > this rules > 3b) that a language understanding system necessarily(!) can > apply such rules It must have the rules and apply them to pass the Turing test. -- Matt Mahoney, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------- 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=117534816-b15a34 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
