> When Potter Steward said in the pornography case, " I know it when I see it " he was literally correct. Here you refer to categorization, not understanding. From the article I refer to: > “Deep learning is good at certain aspects of perception, particularly categorization, but perception is more than categorization and cognition or intelligence is more than just perception. There are many things that go into intelligence … And what we have made real progress on is perception, but the rest of it, we still haven’t made that much progress collectively in the field.” Understanding, real understanding, the "aha moment", is the very basis of new discoveries and real evolution. What we see now are systems quite good at categorizing, pattern recognition in a given set once prepared correctly and so on. There is no relation whatsoever with real intelligence, as in being able to make a new discovery based on analytical and synthetic skills. There are quite a few voices in the community saying the opposite and maintaining that mimicking intelligent action is practically the same as the intelligent action itself, but there are quite obvious limits to what can be achieved in this way.
