I'm expressing the difference from going from 2D Euclidean geometry to 3D Euclidean geometry to Non-Euclidean geometries as in the development of all of those models and theories throughout the history of mathematics. That's what I mean by model building. There currently is no such artificial system that can go through the process of developing and evolving such models and systems. So reasoning/thinking/consciousness or whatever people want to call it must account for such model building. All current research is basically just tweaking something until it fits good enough in a very limited domain. There is no explanatory power in any of the current research.
- eli_gottlieb 11y agoEh, before saying that, go ahead and read some recent research. http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~rgrosse/phd-thesis.pdf http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~rgrosse/phd-thesis.pdf, for example.
- dkarapetyan 11y agoNope, still comes with a theory of probability built in and can't generalize it.
