I've been reading so much about the death of symbolic AI and the complete victory of statistical approaches lately, that I suspect that a new symbolic hype-cycle is about to start.
I know this sounds counter-intuitive, but if you've been following such trends for a while, you might agree with me.
- nerdponx 7y agoI feel like we will end up with a hybrid approach. Powerful statistical models woven together with some kind of logic system..
- marcosdumay 7y agoWell, it's hard to understand why, but for some reason everybody isn't expecting this. The hype goes on waves, "symbolic AI solves everything!", "no, numeric AI solves everything!".
- TelmoMenezes 7y agoExactly!
- thanatropism 7y agoThe maturation and increasing usage of practical SMT solvers is a big sign.
