Approximation Zero: A Philosophical Framework for Artificial General Intelligence

This 140 page book examines some of the most pervasive aspects of reality in the creation of a hybrid philosophical framework that can be used as a basis for strong AI.

The starting point is not a novel paradigm built atop Turing computation but rather a critical examination of the works of legendary philosophers in relation to present problems in devising strong AI.

The characteristics of reality are used to develop a classification of MIND, MATTER, and AI in which it is shown how the three are similar, different, and how they can interact.
