This analogy doesn't work - Einstein discovered the photoelectric effect.
- j7ake 9y agoYes and hofstader is one of the pioneers of artificial intelligence but he has since been disappointed with where the field has gone
- guscost 9y agoQuantum Mechanics is a well-defined subject. "Artificial Intelligence" certainly is not. You could say that the builders of the Antikythera Mechanism were pioneers of artificial intelligence, long before Babbage, Lovelace, or Turing. You could say that everyone from Grace Hopper to Herbert A. Simon to Noam Chomsky was a pioneer of artificial intelligence. It doesn't really mean anything. If you take "Artificial Intelligence" to mean "Connectionist Modeling in Silicon" or "Deep Learning" instead, then my point stands.
