I was just reading Michael Nielson's free ebook: Neural Networks and Deep Learning: A Principle-Oriented Approach[1] yesterday. When Dr. Nielsen tries to reason why it may or may not have a simple algorithm that represent the intelligence, this excerpt strike me the most:
In the 1970s and 1980s Marvin Minsky developed his "Society of Mind" theory,
based on the idea that human intelligence is the result of a large
society of individually simple (but very different) computational processes
which Minsky calls agents. In his book describing the theory, Minsky sums up
what he sees as the power of this point of view:
What magical trick makes us intelligent? The trick is that there is no trick.
The power of intelligence stems from our vast diversity, not from any single,
perfect principle.
Thought it's relevant to mention about it.
