Moreover, building bridges between AI and cognitive is going to be crucial for making real progress towards something like AGI but it is rare that people on the AI side make genuine efforts to reach across the divide. Therefore I should have reacted better myself.
This is like someone tweeting "wash your hands to prevent infections" and suddenly a bunch of doctors start dunking, "what an idiot, surgeons have known this for decades". Perplexing attitude...

"A common mental model is to see disease as caused by things that smell bad -- if something smells bad, it generates noxious vapors, boom, you are infected. Just like a poison gas. In reality, disease transmission can be a complex process governed by microorganisms. Wash hands."

1/7 I was actually about to post something similar, minus the analogy. I’m genuinely intrigued about what in the initial post sparked the reactions it did. It was accurate and didn’t explicitly take credit on behalf of the poster or the field of AI.pic.twitter.com/DL2mnkxn1F

2/7 My guess is that if I had posted the same thing, it wouldn’t have sparked the same reaction. Is that because people know me as a perception researcher & our field gets credit by virtue of that? In other words, for things beyond the content of the tweet?

For me, the reaction is related to the fact that your audience, largely AI folks who admire you (as do I), would not see in your tweet a link back to the rich traditions of psychology that provided the foundation of this idea. Why is this a problem? >

In my view, many in AI (even if not you) don't have a good sense of perspective on how these rapidly emerging ideas and successes have built on the tapestry of other sciences. This is ultimately counterproductive because it leads AI to think it can solve all the problems
