Mike, Your reply flies in the face of two obvious facts: 1. I have little interest in what is called AGI here. My interests lie elsewhere, e.g. uploading, Dr. Eliza, etc. I posted this piece for several reasons, as it is directly applicable to Dr. Eliza, and because it casts a shadow on future dreams of AGI. I was hoping that those people who have thought things through regarding AGIs might have some thoughts here. Maybe these people don't (yet) exist?! 2. You seem to think that a "walk before you run" approach, basically a bottom-up approach to AGI, is the obvious one. It sure isn't obvious to me. Besides, if my "statements of stupidity" theory is true, then why even bother building AGIs, because we won't even be able to meaningfully discuss things with them.
