Yes. In a sense. The sigmoid/neural network was well conceived, the major limiting factor was hardware and training data.
ML isn't really that much further I'd wager. We've just finally gotten the computer yo catch up enough we can spit out a handful of reasonable domain specific function simulators.
We're no closer to a feasible integration thereof to the point of emergent consciousness.
- jjcon 5y ago>to the point of emergent consciousness But that isn't the goal nor the argument being made (not to rabbit hole in discussing that consciousness isn't even really a scientific term that can meaningfully be applied). We had some mathematical notions yes... and we have made a ton of progress since then. The perceptron doesn't hold a candle to methods today, not even close... though yes it is a building block for the field. I don't know how that could be all that controversial.
