I am sure its core will fit in a few pages worth of source code.
That is why so much AI research seems hopelessly off the mark to me on an intuitive level. I would expect a breakthrough from a mathematician, physicist, or philosopher will pave the way to a thinking machine. Thinking is too complex and mysterious to be indescribable by a simple statement.

I still got the sources in CVS for part of the framework...
Why not put up on SourceForge? There are 146 projects right now listed on Freshmeat under "Scientific/Engineering::Artificial Intelligence". The first page of items in that catagory has projects that implement GAs, Neural Networks, and other things I know even less about (and stuff that doesn't seem fit like a "smart" Bash shell). Perhaps your project could assimilate many smaller projects into a common platform.
How can you claim that AI is "most certainly not pure math"? Do you really think mechanical engineering will allow a P4 to operate beyond the (mathematically defined) limits of a Turing Machine? At best these little robots might bring their designers closer to the crux of the matter by giving their imaginations anthropomorphic problems to deal with.
...how any sort of machine could compute those things that a human mind can but a Turing machine can't.
This cuts right to the heart of what makes AI philosophically interesting in respect to computer science. Does anyone have some good links they could post on this subject?
it's almost 250 years since Darwin wrote his Evolution of the species...
2003 - 1859 = 144. If 1859 is almost 1753 its also almost 1965.
To those who want to explain everything with mathematics, I've always said "make a differential equation that models my soul, then tell me what my favourite colour is".
To those who find math valueless I always say, "Tell me if this feels right." when I hand them their change.
...can you be sure that these uncertainties are not divine intervention...
Maybe Yaweh hangs out with Baryons and Lucifer swings with the Leptons. I'm not sure where we'll find Zeus and his minions.
A solid theory of the ongoings of our brains, would at the same time be a solid theory of how god works
I am certain that God does not live in my brain, and that Satan has infected yours.

I think that's the point of using trees in the metaphor. They are an uphill dead-end.
