This is a road that does not lead to Friendly AI, only to AGI. I doubt this has anything to do with Lenat's motives - but I'm glad the source code isn't published and I don't think you'd be doing a service to the human species by trying to reimplement it.
I just site Googled lesswrong.org and overcomingbias.com, and my best guess so far is that AGI = Artificial General Intelligence. (Augmented?) Is that what AGI stands for? Non site-specific google results are definitely not the applicable ones. Apparently it has been used as an abbreviation in this community for quite awhile, but finding out what it stands for takes a few jumps. (Should there be an easily found FAQ? One is not obvious here or on the wiki. Or is a certain degree of obscurity desired?)
Yeah, AGI would be Artificial General Intelligence, where the term "General" is to contrast it with much of current AI work which, well, isn't.
ie, a human, for instance, can figure out how to play an instrument, do deep number theory, build an engine, etc etc etc etc...
It's Artificial general intelligence, I added a redirect and a stub page on the wiki.
