• Biological plausibility (first).
  • Since our only AGI model today is the human brain.
  • Intelligence occurs in neurons as a result of their digital (spiking) function.
  • But enabling shortcuts and extensions which can take advantage of the capabilities of today’s CPUs.
• Starting most simple, adding complexity if beneficial.
  • Creating solutions for the simplest cases first. After these work, algorithms are generalized to handle more cases.
    • Intelligence has evolved since early man but the brain’s structure has not. Rather than beginning with chess-playing, mathematics, or immense language skills, this project starts with basic techniques of finding one’s way or understanding cause and effect.
  • Incremental development
    • "AGILE software development"

The idea being that general intelligence will be created from millions of instances of a small number of unique, but fairly simple, neural circuits (ConceptNetwork).
