, dealing with with a variety of general conceptual issues related to the engineering of advanced AGI, as well as presenting a brief overview of the CogPrime design for Artificial General Intelligence. Now here in Part 2 we plunge deep into the nitty-gritty, and describe the multiple aspects of the CogPr

The attention allocation subsystem is also pertinent to MindAgent scheduling, because it discusses dynamics that update ShortTermlmportance (STI) values associated with MindA- gents, based on the usefulness of MindAgents for achieving system goals. In this chapter, we will not enter into

22.12 Coals and Time 81 22.12 Goals and Time The CogPrime system maintains an explicit list of "Ubergoals", which as will be explained in Chapter 24, receive attentional currency which they may then allocat

ht of the link from Atom A to Atom B is based on the probability of shared utility of A and B - economic attention allocation consists of spreading ShortTermlmportance and LongTer- mImportance "artificial currency" values (both grounded in the universal underlying "juju" currency value defined further below) betwee

It then sketches the broad outlines of a novel, integrative architecture for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) called CogPrime ... and describes an approach for giving a young AGI system (CogPrime or otherwise) appropriate experience, so that it can develop its own smarts,

ines represent nodes and links in OpenCogPrimes mem- ory, and stars denote those nodes with a high level of attention (represented in OpenCog by the ShortTermlmportance node variable) at the particular point in time. In this perspective, self, free will and reflective consciousness are specific phenomena occur- ring

e Sam Adams and his colleagues at IBM have created a cognitive architecture called Joshua Blue IAABL02], which has some significant similarities to CogPrime. Similar to our current research direction with CogPrime, Joshua Blue was created with loose emulation of child cognitive development in mind; and,

ic truth values of the implications in CogPrime's Context A Procedure -> Good triples. However, in CogPrime this probability is not the same as the ShortTermlmportance "attention value" associated with the Implication link representing that implication. Here LIDA merges together two concepts that in CogPrime are se
