Well, I figured the point of the question would be pretty clear seeing as you were claiming a logical/mathematical description of images would be inadequate, but I don't think that could be further from the truth... You could recreate a large amount of detail in an image using mathematics and it

Joe, Thanks for reply - yes, I thought you meant something like this, but it's good to have it spelled out. I think you're making what seems to me to be a v. common mistake among AGI-ers. Yes, you can reduce any image whatsoever on a computer screen, to some set of mathemetical

Boris: I define intelligence as an ability to predict/plan by discovering projecting patterns within an input flow. IOW a capacity to generalize. A general intelligence is something that generalizes from incoming info. about the world. Well, no it can't be just that. Look at what you write

So many overloads - pattern, complexity, atoms - can't we come up with new terms like schfinkledorfs? - but a very interesting question is - given an image of W x H pixels of 1 bit depth (on or off), one frame, how many patterns exist within this grid? When you think about it, it becomes an

And it doesn't literally make much sense because your blog has a lot of generalizations with no examples - no individualizations/particularisations of, for example, what individual/particular problems your algorithms might apply to. The making sense level of your brain - an AGI that works - is

Entities must not be multiplied unnecessarily. William of Okkam. A pattern is a set of matching inputs. A match is a partial identity of the comparands. The comparands for general intelligence must incrementally indefinitely scale in complexity. The scaling must start from the bottom:
