I think Lenat is headed in the right direction, but someone needs to include a knowledge base about learning. – Marvin Minsky
We wanted to solve robot problems and needed some vision, action, reasoning, planning, and so forth. We even used some structural learning, such as was being explored by Patrick Winston. – Marvin Minsky
If you just have a single problem to solve, then fine, go ahead and use a neural network. But if you want to do science and understand how to choose architectures, or how to go to a new problem, you have to understand what different architectures can and cannot do. – Marvin Minsky
Kubricks vision seemed to be that humans are doomed, whereas Clarkes is that humans are moving on to a better stage of evolution. – Marvin Minsky
