This is from the Amazon description of @GaryMarcus new book, though I'm guessing there's a high probability these are not precisely his words. Nonetheless, the same argument pops up in other places too.
yes. of course the point of writing the book is that argument is too subtle to capture in a jacket description or a tweet.
It is so subtle I've never quite grasped it. 'Endowing machines with common sense and deep understanding' in the obvious way was tried for 50 years (it's the obvious thing to try first) and didn't work. What's different about your proposal now? (ps. I'll read the book...)
Yes, please read the book. But also compare the argument you just made - “it’s already been tried, and failed” — to what might have been applied to deep learning in 2010.
