I can’t fully understand or engage with your claims or posts, because I don’t actually know how AI and “symbolic logic” would work, how it reasons about anything, and really even how to start thinking about it.
Can you provide a primer of what symbolic logic/symbolic computing is, as it is relevant to AI (in any sense), and how it is supposed to work on a detailed level, i.e., so I could independently apply it to problems? (E.g. blog post, PDF chapter of a book).
(Assume your audience knows statistical machine learning, like linear classifiers, deep learning, rule based systems, coding, basic math, etc.).
Charles, I don’t think it is necessary to understand all the details about logic to understand my point. The example of a truth table is enough, as I explain in my first post.
You seem really informed about detailed aspects of language, modelling, and seem to be an active researcher with a long career in modelling and reasoning.
