I just realised, you're the guy from my first post. You're first sentence now makes a lot more sense. I think that the problem is not so much that I'm massively overconfident though that may also be the case) its just that when I'm writing here I appear too bold. I'll definitely try and reduce that, though I thought I had done fairly well on this post. Looking back, I guess I could've been clearer. I was thinking of putting a disclaimer at the beginning saying 'Warning! This post is not to be seen as representing the posters views. It is meant to be dismantled and thoroughly destroyed so the poster can learn about his AI misconceptions.' But it was late, and I couldn't put it into words properly.

Anyway, thanks for being patient with me. I must have sounded like a bit of a twat, and you've been pleasantly polite. It really is appreciated.
