Okay, I understand that the Mindpixel project is trying to create a type of artificial intelligence by gathering a variety of simple deductions and stringing them together to create more complex "thoughts". But how will it work? When the mindpixel "The sky is blue" is entered, how does software read and interpret any of this information? There is a fundamental missing component of this whole equation, and that is the basic cognition that interprets the English statements that are being entered into this system. Sure, there is a factor associated with each statement, but what is reading and interpreting the actual statement? What is reading, parsing, and understanding the English language statement that is entered?
How is that supposed to work? I don't see that this is possible.
