[pandorabots-general] Globa

[Stanley E. Honour]

	Several of the eight hundred pound Gorillas including Microsoft
and Google are now working on "World Knowledge bases".   The Indexing
systems for these databases can be considered to be "Constructed
language".   A key technical issue is how to represent the 'weight' or
relatedness of things in a reliable manner.  Several private translation
companies as well as chatbot developers are also now working on W.K.B.s,
Since storage and CPU power are now abundant.   Who ever develops a
W.K.B. with accurate and reliable context performance first will have
achieved one of the major goals of A.I.

Hi William Starin:

Thnak you very much for your comprehensive reply about the constructed
language, Globa. It still makes me think of the Esperanto project, and
of Basic English, the 850-word list developed by Charles Kay Ogden. I
wrote a bot based on Basic English.

The Whorf hypothesis that language limits thought intrigues me greatly.
I've considered that on my own from time to time, but never systematized
it into a full language like Loglan or Globa.

Cheers,
Websafe
