> Unless the author is attempting to redefine GOFAI, ML and NN were very much techniques of "old" AI. What definition of GOFAI are you using here? Wikipedia states: > In the philosophy of artificial intelligence, GOFAI ("Good old fashioned artificial intelligence") is classical symbolic AI, as opposed to other approaches, such as neural networks, situated robotics, narrow symbolic AI or neuro-symbolic AI. The term was coined by philosopher John Haugeland in his 1985 book Artificial Intelligence: The Very Idea. > Thus, Haugeland's GOFAI does not include "good old fashioned" techniques such as cybernetics, perceptrons, dynamic programming or control theory or modern techniques such as neural networks or support vector machines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOFAI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOFAI
