You'd think, after over 30 years of going nowhere with this objective, that the DoD would realize there's no silver bullet to synthesizing common sense. If nobody in the research literature has recently shown any improvement in implementing common sense that's superior to Cyc (which I believe to be true), does this mean DARPA is also renewing funding for other lost causes like perpetual motion machines or time travel?
