I can't talk about details at this stage, but...
We're going to start out with something pretty simple using only some
particular bits of the Novamente Cognition Engine, and then roll out
successive versions using more and more of the NCE ... so, at what point we
will cross the borderline btw narr

You've mentioned this once before,I think. No doubt there are all kinds
Ben,
I just tossed that out without thinking too much about it - just instinctively
knowing it was interesting.
In fact, what is going on is presumably very profound - & "active learning"
doesn't really describe it at all.
Presumably, the situation is something like this:

Mike,
The value of this sort of learning is one of the reasons why I'm so excited
about
rolling out AI systems as "virtually embodied agents" in virtual worlds...
So, I agree that traditionally AI systems have not utilized this kind of
active learning,
but I think that they should, and that there

way AI systems currently learn]
