MORE AI THOUGHTS

What made my early 80’s Artificial Intelligence design different at the time was storing information (knowledge) as ‘stories’: before during and after, where ‘during’ consisted of sets of before-during-after stories of opportunity, action reward(cost). Where ‘during’ consisted of actions that were possible and the costs. And where the ‘root’ or lowest ‘during’ was a single action.

Now, this a very simple way of using three pointers to store full grammars in terms that were ‘understandable’ and ‘auditable’ to humans.

And while that was a very simple method of creating symbolic networks, and in assembly language very fast, the principle is still the same: if AI’s are limited to expression of grammars in human language terms, they avoid the pitfalls of mathematical transformations and set transformations that are not symbolically auditable. In other words, you generate an ai that acts operationally instead of by formula. YOu would think it would be slower but it isn’t. If it needs to be faster and use ‘math’ then that is a problem of symbol creation in hardware not symbol comparison in software.

Why does this matter? Because propertarianism provides the answer to moral ai design.
