40 years ago, and 20 years into the field:
> February, 1983
> IN previous columns I have written quite often about the field of artificial intelligence - the search for ways to program computers so that they might come to behave with flexibility, common sense, insight, creativity, self awareness, humor, and so on.
This is very amusing to me because it reads like a list of things LLMs truly stink at. Though at least they finally represent some nonzero amount of movement in that direction.

- ska 2y agoHis research group has a long history of trying to tackle these problems. Some interesting reading , even if much of it hasn’t (yet?) panned out .
