Ideas and Designs:
01/28/03 UPDATE
I posted today a simplified diagram of the system architecture of my new general AI design.
Here: csnarch1.jpg 220K
This document (300k) also listed below is a partial description of Conceptual Space Networks, it will help explain the system architecture’s theoretical basis
More details will be released as soon asap.
01/24/03 UPDATE (finally!)
Conceptual Network & some details of it's activity and structure 300k smartdraw diagram in jpg format
Today on the AGI mailing list Alan Grimes posted a remarkable discussion of the game of Go and it's relation to AI. His description of the so-called "translation problem" combined with the stuff (posted above) I was working on today led to a couple important ideas that I hope to have posted tomorrow...

The first draft of a brief abstract of the major features, components, and functions of my AI design. This document is still very rudimentary, as I just finished typing it up (at 5:00 am ). Diagrams, illustrations, revisions, and extensive, detailed design notes on AI will be available ASAP.

A New Paradigm of Software and
Hardware Design:
Specifications for: 1) General Purpose Processing based upon Cellular Automata
2) A Hardware Design Paradigm, developed to support Cellular Automata Processing
The above page contains links to 3 high-resolution diagrams illustrating the basic concepts of CA-based Processing and the dedicated hardware developed
in conjunction with it.
