      Major news re #deeplearning & its limits: Yoshua Bengio’s lab confirms a key conclusion of Marcus 2001 and 2018: deep learning isn’t efficient enough with data to cope with the compositional nature of language. https://export.arxiv.org/abs/1810.08272

      "We put forward strong evidence that current deep learning methods are not yet sufficiently sample efficient when it comes to learning a language with compositional properties." Key word is yet, Gary.

      I'm confused by the claim that this is a deficiency of the hyp. class rather than the objective function. We know vanilla DL models can implement compositional predictors, and random initialization sometimes discovers compositional parameterizations (e.g. https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.01445 )

      Replying to @jacobandreas @roydanroy and

      The real question is "what is the prediction problem that 'compositionality' solves?" -- which has nothing to do with DL as such, but DL approaches would be able to take advantage of an answer.

      If I remember correctly, compositionality is thought to arise from the limited source of symbols (phonemes) and need for lossy compression that is insensitive to corruption by noise.

      hunh? who defines compositionality that way? the usual example is at the sentence level, meaning constructed from parts

          These two (or three ;)) views are not mutually exclusive. Plus I don’t think .@roydanroy tried to define compositionality; merely gave some characteristics and why it’s needed.

          Indeed as was asked why it arises. I often think this way of characterizing phenomena is more fundamental.
