Just a thought, maybe there are some commonalities across AGI designs where components could be built at a lower cost. An investor invests in the company that builds component x that is used by multiple AGI projects. Then you have your little AGI ecosystem of companies all competing yet cooperating. After all, we need to get the Singularity going ASAP so that we can upload before inevitable biologic death? I prefer not to become nano-dust I'd rather keep this show a rockin' capiche?
So it's like this - need standards. Somebody go bust out an RFC. Or is there work done on this already like is there a CogML? I don't know if the Semantic Web is going to cut the mustard... and the name "Semantic Web" just doesn't have that ring to it. Kinda reminds me of the MBone - names really do matter. Then who's the numnutz that came up with "Web 3 dot oh" geezss!
