Thanks very much. We hope System will be complementary to Wikipedia. They share a core open ontology that will allow for possible future interoperability.
That is very much the risk and one we have taken on as part of our tech and culture from day one. Today, System considers parameters like evidence reproducibility, significance, and statistical strength. But there is a lot more to do here. As a Public Benefit Corporation, we've codified it in our charter that we must consider and share the potential unintended consequences of each major release. And we'll be publishing our first such report shortly.
- toss1 5y agoExcellent approach! I was actually thinking as I was writing that Wikipedia could be ab excellent source, just producing a graph starting at the actual links within Wikipedia, and then doing the conceptual linkage (using knowledgeable humans to start until an AI develops that is actually able to embody conceptual understanding). Obviously there's IP rights issues involved, but I'd be surprised if a reasonable deal couldn't be made.
