Who's Dumb?
- If you talk to someone and they do not
respond at all, they are definitely dumb.
Also if you can predict all of their replies.
What if the answer was "The time is noon",
always?
But then, probably, the distrubted
computaion would not be impaired by the lack of
such messages.
Redux is an agent because
even if all the other agents have a formal model
of Redux (and they do implicitly), they cannot
predict its messages.
This leads to another
notion: can the agents model one another, or
the user?
Doing so, and knowing who you are communicating
with (see ACL "Sender") is
important for the perception of itelligent
behavior. Is this idea formalizable?
