    1. unconventional ones that require creative thinking.

      E.g., sitting in a car and the dog running outside of the car = walking the dog. But would AI recognise it at such?

    2. Bongrad problems

      See images below; in a Bonged problem the left set of squares contain a set of shapes that have a defining/grouping feature, and the right set of squares has a defining feature that is different from the left set - your goal is to indicate the difference.

    3. specific entities or general concepts,

      It was supposed to contain all the unwritten knowledge that we have, enabling AI to function at human level in vision, language, planning, reasoning and other domains.

    4. analogy

      analogies underlie our abstraction and formation of concept abilities! Emmanuel Sander: "Without concepts there can be no thought, and without analogies there can be no concepts".

    5. Lakoff and Johnson’s claim

      They claimed that our understand of essentially all abstract concepts comes about va metaphors based on core physical knowledge.

    1. simple word-based cues were removed,

      e.g., removing the word 'not' from a sentence - the presence of these types of words can help predict the correct answer.

    2. fail to capture the deeper meaning of an image

      Take for example the image of the soldier arriving at home and greeting her dog. For us this image has a large emotional load, but for an AI it will be an image of a dog and a women....

    3. (LSTM)

      Forget old information: Use the forget gate to determine what to remove from the cell state. Update memory: Use the input gate and candidate values to add new relevant information to the cell state. Generate output: Use the cell state, filtered through the output gate, to produce the hidden state.

    4. point.

      There is thus a multi-dimensional space in which words can be mapped, regarding their relationship to each other. Take for example charm, which can be linked to charisma, but also to bracelet!

    5. the meaning of a word can be defined in terms of other words it tends to occur with, and the words that tend to occur with those words,

      "You shall know a word by the company it keeps!"

    6. positive

      "Despite the heavy subject matter, there's enough humor to keep it from becoming too dark" "there's nothing here that is disturbing or horrific as some people have suggested" "I was a little too young to see this movie when it first came out"

    7. mini-reviews

      "The plot is heavy and a sense of humor is largely missing" "a little too dark for my taste" "it felt as if the producers tried to make it as disturbing and horrific as they possibly could" etc...

    8. four-year-old child brings to understanding language.

      Take for example the hamburger story! To correctly interpret this an AI would need to know that a hamburger is food, burnt to a crisp is not rare, that seen as the man stormed out of the restaurant it is likely that he didn't eat the burger, etc! So much background information / information that you have to read between the lines to get!

    1. .

      This is the case due to the fact that in this situation you are actively inflicting harm to yourself, something that I think we are evolutionarily programmed to avoid...

    2. 3.

      Asimov states that this rule would inevitably fail, using a story he illustrated this point: say, you were to command a rule to go towards a dangerous substance, which, following law 2 the robot will do, but once it nears, the third law kicks in, trapping the robot in an endless loop.

    1. .

      E.g., Will Landecker's DNN trained to classify images as 'contains animal' or 'doesn't contain animal'. It was accurate in this, but later it turned out that the network had learned to associate blurry backgrounds with 'contains animal'. It used a shortcut!

    2. .

      Furthermore, AI can't recognise the nuances and emotional depth that is present in a lot of images: e.g., it can't deduce a story based off of a picture like we people can....

    1. Kapor argues that AI lacks the experiential, embodied learning and emotional cognition fundamental to human intelligence, while Kurzweil counters that advances in virtual reality and a reverse-engineered brain could simulate such experiences.

      Without a human body and everything accompanying this, a machine will never be able to learn everything needed to pass this strict Turing test.

    2. "Singularity,"

      "A future period during which the pace of technological change will be so rapid, its impact so deep, that human life will be irreversibly transformed". --> when AI exceeds human intelligence.

    3. “bad at logic, good at Frisbee.”

      You do it automatically - without conscious thought // sub symbolic AI is uninterpretable but it does everything

    4. .

      Back-propagation takes the error observed at the output, and sends it backwards to assign proper blame to each weight in the network - determining how much to change each weight to reduce the error. Learning is thus gradually modifying the weights so that the outputs ERROR gets as close as possible to 0 on all training examples.

    1. labeled examples,

      A set of the examples are positive (e.g., 8s written by different people), and a set of the examples are negative (e.g., other digits written by different people). This is the training set. There is also a test set, used to evaluate performance.

    2. subsymbolic

      Subsymbolic AI is based on mathematical logic, it is essentially a stack of equations and does not contain human-understandable language.

    1. chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

      Chronic traumatic encephalopathy is a neurodegenerative disease linked to repeated trauma to the head. The encephalopathy symptoms can include behavioral problems, mood problems, and problems with thinking. The disease often gets worse over time and can result in dementia.
