      During my PhD I nearly lost my mind thinking about why we build computational models in cognitive science. {thread}

      Afaik cognitive science was founded in no small part as a response to the AI winter: to continue building functionalist models of the mind, but with the support of and across more disciplines. This failed mostly because most disciplines are not functionalist.

          The modeling communities emerged around several architectures (ACT, Soar etc.) and paradigms (air traffic control, mental rotation etc.) in response to what gave people publications and a chance for tenured employment, not so much wrt what would lead to intellectual breakthroughs

          Computational modelers and other engineers compress the world into causal models, a model captures functional relationships that can be implemented (= are efficiently computable). Neuroscientists and psychologists have room for sympathetic magic ("mirror neurons", "emergence"...)
