Dear Dr. Walker,
Thank you for your request for a copy of my recent paper,
%2Synthesis of Large Programs from
Specific Dialogues%*. In addition to this SPIP paper, I am enclosing
a copy of a related paper which I am presenting next week
at the 4th IJCAI in Tbilisi, USSR.
The project I am now working on
(the Automated Mathematician system), is an attempt to apply
BEINGs to the problem of how to do "%2interesting%*" research.
If that idea catches your interest, a more lengthy
copy of my dissertation proposal is available.
Let me personally invite you,
if you happen to be near Stanford this coming year,
to come to the Aritificial Intelligence Lab -- for a seminar,
discussion, or just a tour.
