Many computer programs today show skills that appear to rival those of outstanding human consultants. However, while each such program does certain things well, it is helpless at doing anything else. Why do our present-day programs lack the versatility and resourcefulness that a typical person shows? Clearly, those programs are deficient in both commonsense knowledge and commonsense reasoning. I'll argue that this has happened because the field of AI has evolved in a backwards direction, as compared with how a typical person develops-and that this is because our AI programmers have not appreciated the importance of making their system able to use more 'reflective' ways to think. |
