Re: New slides on Cognitive AI

My question about Project Cortex was rhetorical in nature.  While I do 
not agree that it is "completely different" (from what?), it is 
proprietary and far from the be-all and end-all of AI, KM, or the 
achievement of human objectives.

On the other hand, it is more likely to achieve widespread 
implementation and usage than anything WE are planning or doing. So it 
might be in our interest to consider what we might learn from it and 
particularly how we might add greater value and engage others in 
recognizing such values.  For example, the vision of the StratML 
standard is far more expansive but far less likely to be realized 
anytime soon, perhaps even among the members of this group.  Time will tell.
