Agreed. This paragraph (in an otherwise insightful essay) was particularly jarring:
"Remarkable things are happening in the field of artificial (general) intelligence. Deep learning algorithms have proven to be better than humans at spotting lung cancer."
This is very emphatically narrow AI.
- AstralStorm 7y agoPattern matching is not intelligence. Calling it AI rather than ML is disingenuous. Tell me when a generic algorithm can solve many different games on different environments at the very least.
- solidasparagus 7y agoPattern matching is certainly intelligence - classical AI was focused on identifying patterns and reacting to them with techniques like decision trees. You can make a fairly convincing argument that intelligence is nothing more than a hierarchical system of pattern matchers.
