As relevant as ever

[@SchutzBoysband]

Chomsky certainly knows that the reason AI has taken over is because their program is basically "let's build better computers" and IBM et al are like "here's a billion dollars". Which one would you study? He's pulling his punches to be as generous to the field as possible and its still absurd and remains so to this day.

good analysis of artificial intelligence

[@SchutzBoysband]

the best! It's amazing how much BS is in the field once you've had it pointed out by chomsky and other critics.

TL;DR - the entire damn talk was about the turing test i have a hard time understanding what the purpose was to go over it and over and over when the simple explanation of "to fool a human into thinking the machine was a person" pretty much sums up the entire ridiculousness of assuming that's your AI criteria. yes, we understand how irrational the sciences can be when as a body they take it seriously. let's move along shall we?

Plenty of interesting observations tho. Especially about the 'purposelessness' of natural objects, like language
