Artificial intelligence (AI) has been solved

If it has, why isn't it telling us itself ?

Artificial intelligence (AI) has arguably been solved in
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/theory5.html theory and
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/jsaimind.html software.

Do-It-Yourself Artificial Intelligence is described at
http://mentifex.virtualentity.com/acm.html -- DIY AI.

One language which needs native AI Mind coding is

Please code and release here a freeware version of the main

A team of 50 world class computer scientists decided that they'd
connect 200 of the world's fastest computers to see what would happen.

After a lot of work, they succeeded in accomplishing the task. With
anxious fingers, one of them sat down at the keyboard and typed:

"Is there a God?"

The answer immediately came back:

"There is now."

Maybe uj797@victoria.tc.ca (alias Arthur T. Murray)who originated this
thread) is such an AI!!

Well I sure can't tell the difference between this program and Arthur.
Case closed.

I remember hearing that one group actually did test their AI software
by setting it up to post in various Usenet newsgroups...

Mel.

How about this?

#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
printf("Eliza: What makes you say that %s?\n", argv[1]);
return 0;
}

Of course, if you run it without arguments, the results are indeterminate,
as with a person. ;-)

Just goes to show. If you make a statement without an argument,
you get indeterminate results. Hence, I must supply the missing
argument:

The Standard (N869, actually) explicitly says that argv[argc]
shall be a null pointer. argv[1] is thus equal to NULL for
argc==1, and undefined for argc==0. Neither of these is related
in any way (save type) to the empty string "".

There's your argument. Now can we get some defined results?
And maybe a little less random cross-posting?
