Our Framework for Developing AI

This talk (and the associated paper) is part of a larger framework that we're following to develop a full fledged, Turing test passing, Artificial Intelligence.
The short version of the framework is to do things like people do.
The Framework (taken from the AAAI 08 talk) is
1. Use Human-like components (simulated neurons)
2. Keep in touch with reality by
  1. Solving problems like humans do (cognitive models and architecture)
  2. Developing interesting systems (AI programs)
3. Integrate Learning
4. Take advantage of emergent algorithms
5. Repeat
I'm not claiming novelty here and I hope many of you already agree.
