Artificial intelligence that understands object relationships
- nikolay 5y agoIsn't "understands" a little too ambitious for what it actually does?
- bionhoward 5y agoWhy would it be? What is understanding, if not simply having the right mental model?
- nefitty 5y agoA mental model implies a mind is involved.
- leobg 5y agoThere is neither such thing as a mind nor as a mental model. That’s what B.F. Skinner would say. For him, there was just an organism, and the contingencies of the environment that would shape its behavior. That’s actually very close to what is happening in machine learning today. Those structuralists who talked about a “mind” or “mental concepts” would be at a loss to understand, much less build, anything like GPT-3 or Tesla Autopilot.

- mdp2021 5y agoYes, surely, but those techniques were implemented on deterministic direct algorithms, as opposed to artificial neural networks. Patrick Winston may come to mind, "the new technologies do the same things we used to do, only worse" (not literal quotation). I think this effort is towards modelling networks that "approach the environment more like a human would" (e.g. "try and see shapes instead of textures"). I do not find it clear which problem is solved. Is there a road towards progress in "fuzzy Minsky" (trying to convey the idea)?
