      This thread by @fchollet, applied to Bayesianism, is the basic counterargument to the last ten years of “AGI as existential threat”.https://twitter.com/fchollet/status/1010988618993655808 …

      Statements like "X is can be used to represent any program/function, therefore it is all we are every going to need" are pretty silly.

      Replying to @MimeticValue @SimonDeDeo and

      People that think that modeling the complexity and functionality of a mind is going to stay out of our reach for long (or forever) are probably unrealistic. To show limits of Bayes etc. we may need more mathematical proofs, and less motivated reasoning.

      I don't think that an ANN is a good paradigm to replicate something like a brain. But once you add external memory and suitable tool libraries, it is not even clear to me that an ANN could not learn the equivalent of the transition function of a brain, for instance.

          "once you add external memory and suitable tool libraries, it is not even clear to me that an ANN could not learn the equivalent of the transition function of a brain" is, again and unfortunately, science fiction. What are the reasons to believe this?

          A lot of very complex systems have relatively simple transition functions. If you want to argue how to best build a system, you need different arguments than for your much stronger claim that a system can not possibly be built in a particular way.
