      He showed this at last week's Evolution of Deep Learning symposium as well. And then highlighted the date 😁

      did he give an argument as to why he disagreed with the quote? from what I gather, Hinton thinks problem of understanding was solved by Google Translate. I think this is laughable; no current system can comprehend a children’s story.

      I am not nearly knowledgeable enough to comment on this. But I remember the argument being that while machine translation & language seem to be tasks better suited for symbolic AI, feature representations from DL without an explicit understanding of tasks still do well on them

      machine translation and even Superglue are poor proxies for genuine comprehension the fact that large datasets have correlations with things doesn’t mean models like BERT can comprehend a narrative, medical report, or news article

      but thanks to @sshkhr16 for clarifying what hinton’s argument might be, even though i am not convinced by it.

      Problem is people are operating on different definitions of “comprehension”

          Obviously agree given our own long line of work on semantic frame based training of machine translation, and semantic frame based machine translation evaluation metrics (MEANT)
