Talk about research he's doing along with Nada Amin. This was one of the talks I was most excited about! But in the end it wasn't as exciting as that. :'(

It felt like a history lesson and I failed to get the point he was trying to make.

McCarthy, "Programs with Common Sense"

Describes how a program may improve by accepting advice from another program that may "understand" the problem at hand. Some of the wishful features are that a common-sensical program may improve through advice, and also improve the process of improvement.

Jon Doyle, "Reflexive Interpreters"
Gerald Jay Sussman, "A Computational Model of Skill Acquisition"
Marvin Minsky, "The Society of Mind"
"A Unified Approach to Solving 7 Programming Problems"
Barliman "smart" editor -- the thing he's worked on that has some program synthesis capabilities through miniKanren
Chris Hanson, Gerald Jay Sussman, "Software Design for Flexibility"

Alexey Radul, "Computational Murk" (someone posted on the chat)

I saw a bookmark for jisho.org -- does William Byrd speak/study 日本語? :o
