robots:HCOM

Humans will have to adapt to the special needs of robot assistants.

In the first cycle, droids simply attempt to accomplish their tasks and avoid danger. Starting with the C4 units, droids should repeat what they think you want before they store it on task or leave your vicinity, using an algorithm for restating things while saying them towards the "highest-likelihood wrong" while technically correct.

• A typical conversation might go like:
• H: Get me a drink from the bar.
• A: I don't know the word "bar".
• H: Get me a drink from the saloon.
• A: I don't know the word "saloon".
• H: Tell me your words for "places to drink".
• A: "Fountain", ..., ..., "_".
• H: That one.
• A: You would like a drink from _?
• H: Yes.
• A: The _ lists 42 drink on their menu. Would you like one of these?
• H: Yes, the milken sweater.
• A: Right away.

At line 6-7, you can start to see how the AI/robot thinks: sets; more specifically, named sets. So inside it's robots:knowledge base, it might have a set called "birds" containing the members {cardinal, oriole, meadowlark, parakeet, blue-jay, purple-martin, finch}. It might further know >this< set of sets (extra long to demonstrate how a proper mind-set might be well-categorized): KnowledgeBase{ Things{ LivingBeings{ Animals{banta, human, dog, ...}, Vegetables{tree, lettuce,...} , Insects{cockroach, beetle, ...}} , OwnerLikes{ eating, drinking, naked-ladies, love, ...}, PlacesToDrink{ fountain, trough, KitchenSink} }, Motions{ RobotsPerform{}, AnimalsPerform{run, eat,... },...} } "Love", is a notable word both in the Motions and Things and connotes another order or valence of sets: the feminine dominant. Motions and Things within the human soul are stored in the female and male orders, respectively; however, computers cannot do this properly, so we may need to include both types in the one KnowledgeBase for relating and empathizing with humans.

Xseprate Pluralnames for sets, singular names for members of sets (unless they're sets themselfs), which get pluralized if they become another set ("tree", for example, in the example above). ThingsNecessaryForLife{ food, water, waste_elimination, breathing, lovingtouch_fromoppositegender, socializiation, reproduction },

XXXNeed (PROLOG?) operator ("DEFINE"? A: Yes, in this conjecture, all of 3-4d reality is definable by an ontology of sets of sets (these can be inverted into a graph (with named edges?)) for breaking down a member into a composition. A "kitchen" can be broken down into an incomplete set of "sink-area", "cupboards", etc.. (Later the robot may need to ask for clarification or the human may delineate the word/object lerself. Need operator for

DEFINE(), REJECT or REMOVE - , ADD or INCLUDE + , INTERSECT /, OUTER_JOIN or COALESCE * (becomes a union when intersection is null). Q: With one dimension (set), you have two operators, with 2d, 2 more are added. What happens with 3 sets? Along with these functions, two literals: NULL and INF. The set -{NULL}= {INF}. The reflexive axiom also holds: -{INF} = {NULL}. Between the two knowledge sets of male valence vs. female valance is the mind's start (_?) itself -- the two hemisphere's of the brain.

To PROLOG: A "family" is a set of people who are related. "Related" is a poorly-defined Word that can Mean. ...

A complete definition of "sentential logic" and what words like "word" means would form a complete self-referential system, capable of talking in first person. If an insect, then such a robot/android would be alive.

NEEDXXX Humans could consider communicating to droids using a musical flute to imitate the droid's robots:RCOM.

When robots find themselves without the means to re-power themselves, they can go into a low-power, safety mode, emitting a audio signature on a periodic basis, so that someone might help them.

Bayesian networks are used to augment android calculations of risk and trust. The owner sets his or her own trust value ((must be = 1.0?)) to anchor a baseline. All other trust scores are below this one, lest the droid become subordinate and change loyalties. Since it is not the goal of this manufacturer to create a world of droids to replace humans, it is the task of humans to become smart enough to train their droids and other droids that they come into contact with. So (like Advogato.org), an initial trust value of the owner is set, from [0.0,]1.0), and then other trusts in this range are multiplied wrt to this. (see above for a contrasting female-answer).
