      In my opinion a new term IS justified, because one of the premises
      of the L2M program at DARPA is that something is not right with
      current approaches to the problem of learning in AI systems.  They
      have many failings, so some radically new thinking is required. 
      That, after all, is what DARPA is all about:  encouraging
      groundbreaking new ideas.<br>
      <br>
      If your suggestion were adopted, and the "Lifelong Learning
      Machines" label were dropped in favor of some variant of one the
      existing terms, what would be the point?  That would be like
      saying "The existing approaches are okay, and we need more of what
      they are doing."  That seems to me to be exactly the opposite of
      the intention with the L2M program.<br>
      <br>
      And, apart from anything else, my own research does directly
      address the problem of L2M, but at the same time it does not fit
      anywhere inside the existing approaches.  Your characterisation of
      the field in the second paragraph below is, I am sorry to say,
      completely irrelevant and almost meaningless in my own framework.<br>
      <br>
      I don't speak for DARPA, of course.  This is just my take on it,
      and my interpretation of what was said at the Proposers' Day.<br>
