As I understand them, the founders of AI–Alan Turing, Herbert Simon, Marvin Minsky, and others–regarded it as science, part of the then-emerging cognitive sciences, making use of new technologies and discoveries in the mathematical theory of computation to advance understanding. Over the years those concerns have faded and have largely been displaced by an engineering orientation. The earlier concerns are now commonly dismissed, sometimes condescendingly, as GOFAI–good old-fashioned AI.
“The mystery of life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”
“Traveling leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.”
—Ibn Battuta
This cartoon depicts ants hard at work storing supplies for the winter, while a grasshopper only sings, which gets him into trouble in the winter
But come the cold, his singing lifts their spirits. Many variants of this tale
Art is never valued, until it is invaluable
