  The one person who had the papers said what was in them didn't tell them enough to even understand how to implement the main loop. It was too vague. So, no detailed papers, no source, good results that might have been done by hand, steady funding for decades, and a commercial spin-off. One commenter said it looks like a Xanatos Gambit: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/XanatosGambit http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/XanatosGambit I thought Cyc project was worth a long-term investment but other theory might be simultaneously true.
