On understanding understanding
International Studies in the Philosophy of Science, 1997Abstract It is argued, by use of specific examples, that mathematical understanding is something which cannot be modelled in terms of entirely computational procedures. Our conception of a natural number (a non‐negative integer: 0, 1, 2, 3,…) is something which goes beyond any formulation in terms of computational rules.

Understand the cogs to understand cognition
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017AbstractLake et al. suggest that current AI systems lack the inductive biases that enable human learning. However, Lake et al.'s proposed biases may not directly map onto mechanisms in the developing brain. A convergence of fields may soon create a correspondence between biological neural circuits and optimization in structured architectures, allowing ...
