Sure, just implement it as a GPS.

Hm, back in 1987. my math teacher showed us mathematical proof that
algorithm for creating algorithms can;t possibly exist.
It is based on proof that algorithm for proofs can;t possibly exits

That's why blue brain project is bound to fail.
Because anything which is based on algorithm cannot
be creative...
Interesting implications there. Almost brings a religious context to
the whole discussion. (That is, are humans "simple" chemical machines,
or do we possess a "soul"?) Suffice to say, you are greatly
simplifying the issues involved and jumping the gun.
This is already so off-topic, but I suggest reading some good books on
evolution by natural selection. Dawkin's The Greatest Show On Earth
does a remarkably good job describing evolution by natural selection,
specifically how evolution by natural selection may be the only known
natural process which creates information in a local open system, the
only process which creates information which is not intelligent
design. "The non-random survival of randomly varying replicators."
Throw on a couple good books of information theory and entropy for
good measure.
How bout this one:
"There are no closed systems. So the issue of entropy does not apply".
On the flip side, who ever proved that humans are "creative"? Or any
moreso than a really good computer AI (which has not yet been made)?
AI is just a myth.
How can you possibly create an ARTIFICIAN intelligence
if you don't even know how natural, and that is biological,
intelligence "works"?
AI is simply trying to copycat that, which alredy exists
in biological world.
