To supplement Professor Brynjolfsson's previous post, classmate Ahmed Bilal has just sent this quick look at Geoff Hinton, pioneer of AI development, who now expresses hesitations about his brainchild. Here's a key paragraph from the piece, "Artificial intelligence pioneer says we need to start over":
Other scientists at the conference said back-propagation still has a core role in AI's future. But Hinton said that, to push materially ahead, entirely new methods will probably have to be invented. "Max Planck said, 'Science progresses one funeral at a time.' The future depends on some graduate student who is deeply suspicious of everything I have said."
