So when Itamar first built his vision system he loaded in some cats vs. dogs pictures

Hi Jeffrey,
Itamar Arel (a prof at UT Knoxville) and I are organizing a workshop for the fall ... careful plan going in, and because at least two of us (me and
Itamar) have well-fleshed out, thorough AGI designs.
The Laird/Langley workshops gave me some powerful intuitions about ... about other topics but will save it for other emails
Thanks
Ben
P.S.
Also, Itamar and I worked out a nifty way to hybridize his neural-net based AI architecture
