Description:

Today we’re joined by Tom Dietterich, Distinguished Professor Emeritus at Oregon State University. We had the pleasure of discussing Tom’s recent blog post, “What does it mean for a machine to “understand,” in which he discusses:

  • Tom’s position on what qualifies as machine “understanding”, including a few examples of systems that he believes exhibit understanding.
  • The role of deep learning in achieving artificial general intelligence.
  • The current “Hype Engine” that exists around AI Research, and SOOO much more.
