If this were the case, I'd agree with you. What I'm proposing is content
independent and context dependent. It is suitable for CAS applications. It is
not "designed"to be constrained, but to identify and normalize a primary,
contextual constraint in order to resolve it in an adaptive sense. Mean

Well Stefan, have you awakened to your higher self?
I'm putting together a course to do it.
Maybe I'll just like put up a marketing website,

Jim,
I haven't been following this thread closely. But if you look at what we've
been talking about in the OpenAI PR stunt thread, at one level I think it
comes to much what you are talking about.
My old vector parser demo linked in that thread does something like this.
You can see it happen. The
One more thing. I would not try to limit the meaning of a symbol within a
context. I would like to be able to find the best meaning for the symbol or
the best referential utilization for that symbol during interpretation or
understanding, but this is not the same as trying to limit the meaning of

Linas,
By "formal incompleteness" I mean Goedel's proof that "every sufficiently
powerful formal system is either inconsistent or incomplete".
I first paid attention to category theory as an alternative philosophical
basis for mathematics in response to Goedel's incompleteness theorem. It is

A contextual reference framework, designed to limit the meaning of a symbol
to one meaning within a particular context, would only displace the
ambiguity - unless the language was artificially designed to be that way.
So called 'context-free' languages, ironically enough, do just that. They
have so

If one had a contextual reference framework, each symbol would always have one
meaning within a particular context. Searches would always be optimal. An
example of this is evidenced within the Japanese language. So, the 30+ years of
waiting was for no good reason. If only the industry had develo
I asked myself the question: If a theory of symbols was a feasible basis
for stronger AI, then the earlier efforts in discrete AI or weighted
reasoning should have show some promise. They should have worked. So why
didn't they work? Then I remembered that they did work with small data
sets. GOFAI d
Yes. We are all waiting for the broad-scale human awakening to a higher
self.

Robert,
I'm afraid I haven't followed this list closely, so I don't know Prof
Honeycutt or what your discussions might have been.
To be fair, I don't think theoretical consensus comes easily.
There are people reaching for one. Most recently we have had Geoff Hinton
