The trollish poster that sounded like Edgar Postrado is close to being banned from the Kurzweil AI forum:

They certainly have bad timing. There has been protest against Singularity University for their (from what I can gather) staying small causing it to be a scarce resource that is unaffordable to most and hard to get accepted into. I did not want to get stuck in the conflict but I had something to add to help it become a good thing for the forum too:

There is something else I can briefly say in regards to the AI forum being a free incubator for those who have something constructive to add to discussions concerning AI approaches to modeling all the intelligence there is a human brain including its living genome and migrating cells. For what it's worth a number of us went in search for evidence of intelligence at the levels I described and I now have bee behavior and other things now being written into the How it Works for the now under construction ID Lab #6 package.
From what Star0 just told me we have a terrific readership that also just happens to be interested in the success/fail machine intelligence too:

At this point in time it's perhaps just as well that I do not have to know or care what Wesley and a few others are trying to say. Those best able to find what I have useful are in an AI forum that does not care what this one thinks either.

The theory of intelligent design holds that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection.
