Marvin Minsky

• "Societies need rules that make no sense for individuals. For example, it makes no difference whether a single car drives on the left or on the right. But it makes all the difference when there are many cars!“
• "There was a failure to recognize the deep problems in AI for instance, those captured in Blocks World. The people building physical robots learned nothing.“
• "When David Marr at MIT moved into computer vision, he generated a lot of excitement, but he hit up against the problem of knowledge representation he had no good representations for knowledge in his vision systems.“
• "I think Lenat is headed in the right direction, but someone needs to include a knowledge base about learning.“
• "We wanted to solve robot problems and needed some vision, action, reasoning, planning, and so forth. We even used some structural learning, such as was being explored by Patrick Winston.“
• "I think Lenat is headed in the right direction, but someone needs to include a knowledge base about learning.“
• "Kubrick's vision seemed to be that humans are doomed, whereas Clarke's is that humans are moving on to a better stage of evolution.“
• "If you just have a single problem to solve, then fine, go ahead and use a neural network. But if you want to do science and understand how to choose architectures, or how to go to a new problem, you have to understand what different architectures can and cannot do.“
