@GaryMarcus I would like in fact to hear a solid and testable proposal based on your 20 years of insisting how ML is not on the right track (as you said in an earlier tweet in this week), instead of another essay.https://twitter.com/GaryMarcus/status/1200613819518599169 …

Researchers rarely engage with general audience non-fiction. If your goal is community engagement, try publishing where they publish. Paying money and sifting through hundreds of pages is a big ask.

Steve, tons of us at DeepMind have read The Algebraic Mind. I see it on people's desks all the time. It's more of a long review article than a popsci book. This is why the usual response to Gary's critiques is "we know, you've been repeating the same thing forever."

This is a red herring. Problem proposals are not solution proposals.

agreed. but we need consensus about what the problems are before we can find solutions not appeals to ever bigger data sets when Bengio recently acknowledged core of what I said about generalization in 2001 it was first time I saw ML leadership really engage core problem.

An algorithm can't look at pictures of bridges and "know" how best to engineer them because the data is superficial. How do you test the inability to extrapolate outside of the given data? They know this because "if given enough data" is their mantra.

Can you give an example of this concept ?

f(x) = x. each input x has a unique output standard backprop net representing inputs as binary numbers trained on a subset of even numbers can generalize (imperfectly) to other even numbers but not odd numbers. patching specific case is easy; general solution is hard.
