This method of representing association attempts to assign values to sentential logics. I am not sure how much more intelligent such a knowledge system would make an android, but I can definitely see its implications for making one more creative. Tina Shen deBessonet discusses the idea of programming robots to think by association. His definition of association involves any kind of relation between two objects. This definition raises many questions.
Unconscious relations are also associations.
If we don't know how the association is built, then we can't program it. This argument seems to be along the lines of our previous readings. Because this question is raised so often in AI, I would think that trying to fully understand how something works is not possible. It cannot justify its actions. And relations are unique to each person.
