Why does Mentifex matter?
Mentifex AI matters (i.e., is worth looking into) for the following reasons. • It is based on a linguistic theory of mind and is therefore a top-down “educated guess” approach to AI design rather than a bottom-up “genetic algorithm” approach that could take eons to evolve. • It has produced working AI proof-of-concept software that already thinks primitively in natural human language. • It shows the way to proceed with serious AI design in ways that may look makeshift and clumsy at first glance but for which no viable alternatives have become evident in the passage of ample time for candidates to emerge. • It solves the very core of the AI problem of how to engender thinking in a machine so that subordinate problems (such as robot motor control) may be solved after-the-fact and integrated step-by-step with the core functionality. • It is open source and free for the taking so that other AI entrepreneurs may branch out from Mentifex AI as a point of departure in AI Mind evolution. • Oth
