Project idea[edit]

The idea is to develop a system that will analyze and understand the content lingiustically as users add content and make entries. At the same time system will build its own knowledge structure determining the conflicting ideas in the process and considering them as alternatives.

Project goals[edit]

Project's purpose is not to tell if someone's idea is true or false. But to tell which ideas it conflicts or how it is supported by other ideas, or already mentioned in other entries with different words. If system can run fast enough, it can response simultaneously as the users write their entries.

Furthermore people can ask questions and get responses not like a search engine, but like an AI explaining things and giving examples.

This project can be a base for development of a future system that can discuss with people, make philosophy, or even invent new ideas.

Being unbiased is crucial for developing/managing such system as it is not intented to influence people, but share knowledge via an unbreakable systematic way.
