literally smarter on every level, and because the abilities of the higher levels depend on those of the lower levels, they can perform abstractions that mature gorillas will never learn, no matter how much we try to train them. The second set of mechanisms is in the motivational...

socially disadvantaged households, but they lag behind (and never catch up) in cognitive development even after controlling for family income. Gorillas can crawl after 2 months, and build their own nests after 2.5 years. They leave their mothers at 3-4 years. Human children are...
Gorillas can crawl after 2 months, and build their own nests after 2.5 years. They leave their mothers at 3-4 years. Human children are pretty much useless during the first 10-12 years, but during each phase, their brains have the opportunity to encounter many times as much train...

von Neumann and others on computers came directly not from Turing Machines but through this bypath of neural networks. But simple neural networks didn’t do much. Frank Rosenblatt invented a learning device he called the perceptron, which was a one-layer neural network. In the la...

Turing’s Machine 213 Thanks to Turing’s insight into coding schemes and the machines he designed, the British were soon able to read almost every coded message the Germans sent during the war, giving the Allies an enormous advantage. The D-Day invasion involved convincing Hitler...
Knowledge 141 You might argue we could devise a more sophisticated mechanical filter, something that contains an algorithm with an understanding of the rules of language. The problem is both the size of the task and the nature of understanding. If I devised some really good appr...
