There are sityations where the simplest explanation is to chuck Occam's Razor :) There is an over reliance. Though implementors do need to go from complex to simple. But there are issues with rationality. There are issues with scientific objectivism. Aren't Occam and Gödel at odds with each other in some ways? Especially in virtual worlds hosted by computers where there is a disconnect between thermodynamic and information theoretic. And NKS (Wolfram) does squeeze in there somewhat between Occam and Gödel…. Didn’t gain much traction yet AFAIK. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T8eabd59f2f06cc50-Md9f2407bfa3e517b3ace41a1 Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
