Re: The A.I. Project II
HiYa,
I dont believe it really matters WHAT the subject is in comparison to
things like its environment,visibility, and stimuli.I will expand the vote
to include all ideas that come across this board between now and then,that
way we can vote on all of it in one fell swoop.
The purpose of the vote is to establish a rough outline of what we
will accomplish through this collaboration.It is possible that all
of the threads we receive between now and then will just complement
one another.However there will probably be conflicts and the most direct
way to solve the conflicts is to determine what the community,as a
whole,deems best.
Nothing will be written in stone,but we should make sure that if
there are changes,then its because the whole team made the decision
for those changes.
When we have decided which avenue to take, I believe we should then
take the whole and divide it into smaller parts, each of these parts
to be worked on by different individuals,maybe we'll have to take
these smaller parts and divide them down even further.
I plan to take a homemade object oriented approach to the programming
tasks in order to bring it together into a whole, I might need help
with that at first. Then I want to create actual schematics to
distribute to those working on it, you know, or some other orderly
method.I'd like to document every step,test and retest every step.
Build an excellent series of libraries which are reliable and can be
used by future Euphoria users.
When you talk about visibility,in my mind your talking about graphics,
Im sure we can come up with some 2d stuff that looks great.Alot of
times I feel like a mental midget among giants on this forum.Theres alot
of real smart people here, and I really think its possible to do
something like this.You never know, maybe we'll stumble upon something
really new...its happened before.
Have a good night,
JDUBE
