Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.
[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

Well, Prolog also allows recursion, and is Turing complete, so it's not as rudimentary as you make it out to be.
But to anyone even passingly familiar with theoretical CS this is nonsense. Prolog is not "reasoning" in any deeper sense than C is "reasoning", or that your pocket calculator is "reasoning". It's reductive to the point of absurdity, if your definition of "reason" includes Prolog then the Brainfuck compiler is AGI.
