[1/10] CENTAUROMACHY & #AI
10 months ago Nature published a paper entitled “A foundation model to predict and capture human cognition” showcasing a model called Centaur, proposed as a possibile candidate for a unified theory of cognition, since it was able to replicate, with
Cognitive Design for Artificial Minds (doi.org/10.4324/978131546053…) turns 4! Since then its ideas have been presented & discussed widely in the research fields of #AI/CogSci/Robotics and - nowadays - both the possibilities and the limitations of #LLMs & #ReinforcementLearning [1/2]
already envisioned and discussed in the book) have become a common topic of research interests in the AI community and beyond. Similarly also the topic concerning the evaluation - in human-like and human-level terms - of the current AI systems has become a critical theme today
[1/7] The past weeks have been intense in the AI community since for the first time, after many decades, AI scientists have been awarded with the @NobelPrize n Physics and Chemistry for the proposal of innovative neural network architectures.
Among the winner @geoffreyhinton
[6/7] (based on the confusion between i) human-like computation and human-level performances and ii) functionally vs structurally designed systems) leads then to the interpretation and explanation of the obtained AI output
[7/7] in terms of the underlying biological theory explaining the same output in the biological system. Discover more about this and other issues @ doi.org/10.4324/978131546053…
Cognitive Design for Artificial Minds closed last week at the number #15 worldwide on Amazon category "AI"!
In a recent invited talk @nexacenter of the Polytechnic of Turin @antoniolieto discussed with the fellows of the center about the applications of the Minimal Cognitive Grid, a concept firstly introduced in the #book "Cognitive Design for Artificial Minds" doi.org/10.4324/978131546053…
On May 8th, @antoniolieto will deliver an invited talk
@nexacenter (Polytechnic of Turin @PoliTOnews) on the difference between human-like computation & human-level performances, based on the notion of Minimal Cognitive Grid introduced in the #book: routledge.com/9781138207950
