"Search is all well and good when we are counting words, which is what data analytics and machine learning are really all about."
There are machine learning models which go far beyond counting words, for example see https://arxiv.org/abs/1502.01710 https://arxiv.org/abs/1502.01710
- wodenokoto 8y agoParent links to Yann LeCunns's "Text understanding from Scratch" paper, from 2015, where the authors uses a conv-net, originally build for image recognition to do text categorisation. The NN techniques falls squarely in the "counting words"-bracket, although this one is actually counting characters. It is a great paper, with great results, but none of those models therein have an opinion on ISIS, an ability to converse or anything the author of TFA calls cognition.
