      When the software world wants to build stuff that works, it still mostly uses stuff that innately incorporates symbol-manipulation. Can someone please show me an operating system, a word processor, a spreadsheet or scaleable DB that is built with neural networks and no symbols?https://twitter.com/tyrell_turing/status/1003313227852181504 …

      Fin/ If nature can create intelligence w/o innate symbol proc, we probably can too. And until someone provides an example of an innate symbol proc system that outperforms NNs in a real-world application, I’ll remain convinced that it’s just another winter you’d be in for.

      I’ll see you you’re silly challenge and raise you. Show me one of the major platforms that runs the world: Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, that doesn’t use neural nets.

      “Uses neural networks” is very very different from “their essential architecture is based on neural networks.” False equivalency there, Bruce.

      Perhaps so. But I fail to see the point of the constant denigration of NNs & their accomplishments. Despite Chomsky, Fodor, et al. claiming that physical symbol systems were at the heart of language, no purely (or even mostly) symbolic system has come close to the achievements 1/

      Your premise is wrong: I not dissing neural networks. I AM saying that they are not a desert topping and a floor wax.https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/shimmer-floor-wax/n8625 …

      @bruce_lambert you are straw-manning me, too, as i constantly argue for hybrid models and suggest that utility of deep learning lies in perceptual categorization. read anything i have written lately, or back to 1992.

      Perhaps I’m misconstruing your arguments, but your recent paper isn’t titled “In Defense of Hybrid Systems” or “The Fragility of Symbol Systems.” It’s “Deep Learning: A Critical Appraisal.”

      perhaps you should read beyond the title? at least the abstract, say? just a thought.
