5.3 An Architecture Diagram for Human-Like General Intelligence 101 Each of these long-term memory types has its analogue in working memory as well. In some cognitive models, the working memory and long-term memory versions of a memory type and corresponding cognitive processes, are basically the same thing. CogPrime is mostly like this — it implements working memory as a subset of long-term memory consisting of items with particularly high importance values. The distinctive nature of working memory is enforced via using slightly different dynamical equations to update the importance values of items with importance above a certain threshold. On the other hand, many cognitive models treat working and long term memory as more distinct than this, and there is evidence for significant functional and anatomical distinctness in the brain in some cases. So for the purpose of the integrative diagram, it seemed best to leave working and long-term memory subcomponents as parallel but distinguished. Figure 5.4 also encompasses metacognition, under the hypothesis that in human beings and human-like minds, metacognitive thinking is carried out using basically the same processes as plain ordinary deliberative thinking, perhaps with various tweaks optimizing them for thinking about thinking. If it turns out that humans have, say, a special kind of reasoning faculty exclusively for metacognition, then the diagram would need to be modified. Modeling of self and others is understood to occur via a combination of metacognition and deliberative thinking, as well as via implicit adaptation based on reactive processing.
