SupportiveArgument

#181
The all purpose representation a front-end module would provide to a computer model would have to encode a vast amount of information, enough to adapt to all contexts and analogies it might be used in—making it too bulky for efficient processing.
David Chalmer, Robert French & Douglas Hofstadter 1995.

ACME doesn't understand analogy☜All ACME does is take algebraic sentences in predicate logic notaiton and compare them. For example, it only understands that Socrates is like a midwife to the extent that it understands that (a(b)), (c(d)) is similar to (A(B)), (C(D)).☜EF597B

Front-end assumption is dubious☜Models that use pre-configured representations and hand-tailored data assume that a separate front-end module could be built that would filter sensory data into the models representational form.☜98CE71
