Event - something that takes place, an occurrence.
Event may happen either in outer world
or in strong AI itself.
Strong AI knows only about events which are observed or fired by hardcoded
units. So we will usually talk only about such observable events.
Example of events: earthquake, new email, thought,
action.
Event may be registered into the main
memory. In this case event is represented by a surface
concept.
Event may result in thought.
Event may satisfy super goals (see: goal’s event).
Strong AI tries
to find relations between action and event.
In order to
find cause-effect relations strong AI assumes
that action happened before is a cause
of an event which happened after.
In other
words: event happened after is an effect of an action
that happened before.
Thanks to
the cause-effect relations it is possible
to predict what would happen as the result of current event
(or action).
Strong AI sends
chat message and gets response back. Then:
- “Find
correlation between action and event” routine
creates cause-effect relations between
“send chat message” action and “chat message received”
event.
- Strong AI
learns that “send chat message” action usually leads
to “chat message received” event.
- From this
new knowledge Strong AI can deduct which action should
be made if there is a need to receive chat message.
