Talk:Mindpixel

message: *  There is a similarity between Mindpixel and Wikipedia in that both projects are trying to build a body of consensual material, although their approaches differ.

message: Is it me, or mindpixel is a near death project ?
It looks like the project home page is a pretty still state, and 
the webpage of Chris McKinstry is not valid anymore.
I did not hear from it since a long time and all news seems to be dated 2 years
ago.
Not sure how to update the current article to reflect that state of affairs...
As of October 17th 2004 the project statistics indicates:
Users: 50,779
Mindpixels: 1,435,127
Minimum Estimated Value: $ 358,781.75
I'll try to come back in a few weeks to see if it has changed much.
-----
I've been watching the site and it does seem well past its peak of popularity. I count there are between 50 and 200 mindpixels entered per week at present. Chris McKinstry also seems to be silent . He was involved in anti war demonstrations in Iraq in spring 2003 before the invasion and has been silent since then. 
See article posted by him " A Hacker Goes to Iraq "

thread_title:  Is it still alive ? 

message: Both articles are describing the same general project/results.  There are no major published results from either study/project, as such it is just popular culture AI research.  While I personally favor deletion, a good stop gap is to combine the two articles and make one single article that has higher value.  Thus the merge proposal.  Most people that read one will want to read the other anyways, thus there seems to be little reason for there to be two separate articles.  --ChrisWakefield 05:30, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes to MISTIC (AI project) . Seems to overlap and adds nothing that is not in the Mindpixel article. Lumos3 15:39, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

text: No to Minimum Intelligent Signal Test This is a different subject and deserves an article in its own right. Lumos3 15:39, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed merge of [[Mindpixel]] and [[Minimum Intelligent Signal Test]]

message: Mindpixels database or commonsense had a flaw if it was to be used as a knowledge base for AI. Commonsense is considered the most logical truth as governed by the general belief of the majority in a particular society. But on several occasions in history it have been proven that even though it is thought of as true by the majority, that does not mean to say that it is true. And that the current state of the input is misguided. This would then upon being logically looked at cause the AI to return a false logic answer if the rules of commonsense it used have not been proven absolute.
