I see an "entropy problem" here.
Not having some information and variety (in Ross Ashby's sense) flowing 
from the "outside world"
will likely result in a fairly predictable, trivial and uninteresting 
stable state.

I would better have the system *really* "understand" some language (akin 
to natural, *not* source code or scripts)
in order for you and me and anyone  else to interact more easily and 
quickly with it.

Yeah, but what could be the "path" to this point?

Some other interesting non standard views of wannabee AI wizards:

"This is the great naivete of computer science: by imagining itself to 
operate on domains rather than on discourses about domains, it renders 
itself incapable of seeing the discourses themselves, or the social 
controversies that pull those discourses in contradictory directions."

And:

"What is necessary, in my vision, is a way to develop machines that 
gradually become intelligent by their own efforts of exploration of the 
world. It will be clear later, however, that this is not a robotics 
initiative."
