[Crazy But Able] Expert systems have problems, deep problems, because they encode all of the knowledge in the system right up front! It’s easy to seem intelligent when someone has given you all of your intelligence. What we need are computers that can see problems and reason, computers that can think.

[Crazy But Able] AI: Problems with symbolic logic: I remember reading a paper back in college by a professor who figured that all human knowledge could be represented by thirty or so symbols, grouped into four main categories. Each symbol would have a number of attributes, and by a series of transformations and application of logical rules you can represent all of human knowledge with your thirty major symbols. Or something along those lines; it’s been over 5 years and I don’t remember that much about it, but even at the time I was pretty skeptical.
