It's difficult to evaluate CYC given Cycorp's secrecy. Domingos called it something like a colossal failure, which is hard to believe, but it's hard to argue given how little info gets out of Cycorp. So does Cycorp have any interest in changing this? Do they care about improving their reputation in the AI community?
How would you compare Cyc (both the knowledge base and the inference engine) with current efforts in the semantic web? Is OWL/RDF just too simple to encode the kind of logic you think common sense needs?
