"Polyscheme is a cognitive architecture designed to achieve human-level artificial intelligence and to explain the power of human intelligence. We choose and evaluate research efforts primarily on how they help advance the ability of systems to do what people can and computers can't yet. Polyscheme has enabled computer models that explain how background knowledge and context can be used to understand language that is ungrammatical, nonliteral and ambiguous; robotic systems that can reason and plan while incorporating incomplete and noisy information from a dynamic environment; and computational models of children's physical, social and linguistic reasoning."

To me Polyscheme looks like part of the development of true Reason in computers and computational sciences. This topic is very important and full of potential. Nobody wants a doctor who can only read from a book, and everybody wants a doctor who can tell them if it is safe for them to run with their unique injury.
This also is a progression of our understanding of the human brain. We know some, but not much, about how the human brain reacts to stimuli, but we know even less about what actually gives us humans strong emotions, reason, and educated decisions; or individuality, humor, and opinion.
