Let's see how the facts pertain to the reality of the situation.

"Douglas Hofstadter's Copycat cognitive model will be the basis of sentient AI. That is why the guy who used it to write a solver for Bongard problems took it down, fearing it's infinite power." ------- Full Paragraph 1 of Original Post regarding "What is your favourite cognitive model?" by "Anonymous" 2014-05-08 03:56
(1). All assertions are by definition baseless and your assertion of the non-fantasy possibility of "sentient AI." is a most baseless one.
(2). This cognitive model is what it is and that is an interesting mind-toy (not cognitive-toy ;) ). It has no possibility in the fantasy-possibility of the making of the fantasy of *simulating the human mind* a reality. This is due to many reasons that I may or may not explain later depending on your response.
(3). I think you are in fact seeing what isn't really there in the actions of the "guy" who most likely was playing a little joke or took it down for a technical reason. "infinite power"? Surely you're jesting.
