Hi Ron,
Actually, I didn't want to waste to much attention of the reader with
discussing the complexity of the emerging structure and dynamics. I wanted
to stress the importance of the exploration of the implications and
inescapability of simple and powerful reinforcing mechanisms (like
'forced/emerging' feedback control). In other words: I believe that if
all AI research would have been done in the field this kind of abstract
learning instead of task-specific learning, my Mac probably would
generated instead of processed this text :-)
So, my goal was to touch the topics that are touched by the model,
we shouldn't worry about complexity but about simplicity and
inescapability of criterions for recognizing intelligence.
Have a nice day!
Mervyn
