More progress on generalized AI techniques

In my first post above on this topic I said:

--------------------------------
“WILL IT WORK?
“============

“The answer is most probably, yes, because ...
“...
“...many of the learning, inferencing, and inference control mechanisms deployed in more narrow applications can be generalized to have applicability to AGI. “

--------------------------------

As evidence of the above statement, I am attaching a link to a lecture by Pedro Domingos of the University of Washington on what he views as a highly generalized AI learning and inferencing system using Markov logic networks. http://videolectures.net/bsciw08_domingos_mlwuv/  This representation shares many features with the hypergraph representation in OpenCogPrime by Goertzel et al.

There are some other interesting lectures from the same conference at http://videolectures.net/bsciw08_whistler/
