Lots of interesting points but I don't know if I agree with the conclusion: " Beyond the case of Deep Learning, I believe that a concentrated effort on the basic Science of Intelligence and not only on the Engineering of Intelligence is high priority for our society " In my view, it seems like the so-called "engineering of intelligence" is continuing to prove extremely fruitful and racing ahead of the "science" of intelligence. It may well be that models are growing in complexity beyond what we can explain/understand theoretically. Also, there are already a ton of extremely useful existing tools for intelligence, and to me it seems like what's missing is not better algorithms but more engineers to weave intelligence into more parts of life.
