[FRIAM] alternative response

[Marcus Daniels]

Would you ask a Facebook image labeling algorithm how it converts a picture into a name?
If I were to try to write a set of bots to reproduce FRIAM conversations, I’d probably do it with an agent-based approach, and dump my mental model of each person into a program, and then run the programs together, like a sort of core-war game.

I think the dynamics of this game would be predictable sometimes, and other times it would have long transients.  Other times idiosyncratic word associations would redirect the conversation in unexpected directions.

I’m not sure what you are asking.  It seems like you see the reflection on behavior as different from behavior.   To me it is all just behavior based on different inputs and types of outputs.

Marcus,  That's a very fancy description. How did you come up with it? And how did you find the words to express it?

Nick,

For what it is worth, I am not even sure we will come to agree
on the best way to describe the physics of the natural world.
