So do I. But I'm mindful of the flawed assumptions made by the best minds in symbolic AI from the 1950's to the 1980's that AI required no more than raw facts and logic. Let's not repeat that mistake. I'm intrigued by the potential of deep nets to 'simulate' the bases for symbolic grounding using something like thought vectors (TVs), especially if they can be revised and augmented through personal experience. Bootstrapping one's knowledgebase using someone else's rich set of TVs may go a long way for an AI to become grounded vicariously.
