Are people silly for not having coherent, non-contradictory beliefs, or is it silly to expect intelligent people to have global, universal, coherent beliefs about messy reality?

The Cyc Project turned common sense into predicate logic... ...and found it necessary to create lots and lots of "microtheories" (locally consistent, mutually inconsistent) because anything vaguely large acquired contradictions.

looks like douglas lenat was at xerox parc in the early 80s - lucy suchman and other EM people were around then, I wonder if it influenced him?

The stories often talk about a naval simulation game with well defined rules as an early inspiration for "simply" coding the rules for "everything". I always just assumed the microtheory thing was a pragmatic hack born of necessity? :-P

I think everyone involved with Cyc would be much happier if it were globally consistent. And I don’t think think Doug was influenced by EM. He’s very much an old-school AI guy; pretty much the last of them.

I worked on Cyc for a couple of summers, and no, no hint of EM influence. I was pretty disenchanted with KR by that time, but I thought it would be really interesting to do a sociology of the knowledge creation process as embodied in the group there (at MCC).
