| Fundamental CS methodology | On the theory side, for the most part mathematical methodologies (not natural science). On the practical side, hand-coding programs and manual invention and implementation of algorithms. Systems creation in CS is "co-owned" by the field of engineering. | | | Fundamental CS methodology | On the theory side, for the most part mathematical methodologies (not natural science).

| Self-Construction | It is assumed that a system must amass the vast majority of its knowledge autonomously. This is partly due to the fact that it is (practically) impossible for any human or team(s) of humans to construct by hand the knowledge needed for an AGI system, and even this were possible it would still leave unanswered the question of how the system will acquire knowledge of truly novel things, which we consider a fundamental requirement for a system to be called an AGI system. | | | Self-Construction | It is assumed that a system must amass the vast majority of its knowledge autonomously.

| Semiotic Opaqueness | No communication between two agents / components in a system can take place unless they share a common language, or encoding-decoding principles. Without this they are semantically opaque to each other. Without communication, no coordination can take place. | | | Semiotic Opaqueness | No communication between two agents / components in a system can take place unless they share a common language, or encoding-decoding principles.

| Systems Engineering | Due to the complexity of building a large system (picture, e.g. an airplane), a clear and concise bookkeeping of each part, and which parts it interacts with, must be kept so as to ensure the holistic operation of the resulting system. In a (cognitively) growing system in a dynamic world, where the system is auto-generating models of the phenomena that it sees, each which must be tightly integrated yet easily manipulatable and clearly separable, the system must itself ensure the semiotic transparency of its constituents parts. This can only be achieved by automatic mechanisms residing in the system itself, it cannot be ensured manually by a human engineer, or even a large team of them. | | | Systems Engineering | Due to the complexity of building a large system (picture, e.g. an airplane), a clear and concise bookkeeping of each part, and which parts it interacts with, must be kept so as to ensure the holistic operation of the resulting system.
