I mean, common sense is an unsolved problem in humans...saying it is "beautiful and unsolved in AI" is equivalent to saying "statistics programs aren't like humans." Which is just an uninteresting truism.https://twitter.com/lexfridman/status/1199451023477268481 …
I disagree. We learned so much from CyC and ConceptNet, both based on the partial solutions that worked and that led to practical applications, and from the failure of realizing the core ambition. (Minsky was following this ambition until his last days.)

In AI, we know so little that we can't say it doesn't work until we try it and fail - in that sense the projects were useful. But I don't think common sense can be "solved" as a problem distinct from other deep AI problems that are likely circularly dependent on each other.

I agree. I think that Cyc has helped a lot of people to understand that. And it is still intrinsically useful.
