Abstract:
Knowledge rich symbolic reasoning systems can play an important role in the construction of socially intelligent agents. Drawing on my experiences with building Cyc, I will describe methodologies for constructing such entities. Where humans figure into the system construction "loop" as well as the system application "loop" will be described. Although such a nonembodied system will suffer from certain limitations I will describe ways in which they may usefully contribute to application and theory relevant to Socially Intelligent Agents.
