No doubt it will evolve in some respects as implementation progresses; one of the principles kept in mind during the design and development of OpenCog was modular- ity, enabling substantial modifications to particular parts of the framework to occur without requiring wholesale changes throughout th

ing the Atomspace formalism satisfies the relevant general requirements and has proved workable from a practical software perspective. In terms of the Mind-World Correspondence Principle introduced in Chapter 10, the impor- tant point regarding the Atom representation is that it must be flexible enough to allow the compact and rapidl

pause to briefly discuss some of the practicalities of work done with the OpenCog system currently implementing parts of the CogPrime architecture. OpenCog, the open-source software framework underlying the "OpenCogPrime" (currently partial) implementation of the CogPrime architecture, has been used for

Our hope, obviously, is that the principle could be useful in actually figuring out how to architect intelligent systems

Prototype work done during 2007-2008 involved using an OpenCog variant called the Open- PetBrain to control virtual dogs in a virtual world (see Figure 6.6 for a screenshot of an OpenPetBrain-controlled virtual d

level of capability will be achievable by simply interposing DeS- TIN (or some other system in its place) as a perception /action “black box” between OpenCog and a robot. Some preliminary experiments in this direction have already been carried out, con- necting the OpenPetBrain to a Nao robot using simpler
