True, though he made that decision in a particular historical context. Consider:
1. The computational resources at the time. I tried to run 14 node multi-layer NNs in the 90s and I'd have to go to lunch and come back before a single run was done. (backprop looped several times to converge).
2. The whole symbolic vs statistical debate that was going on at MIT. You had Chomsky, Fodor and Minsky lining up on almost philosophical grounds. (In Fodor's case, explicitly so).
