Worthy reminder: NYT 1958 article on perceptrons

5/18/2016

A decade before the "AI winter", going by this NYT article on single layer perceptrons, the AI craze was in full swing.  AI and Machine Learning have made some significant progress in this last decade, but it's always worth remembering how the marketing of AI will always be way ahead of the true capacity of AI. While too much undue excitement can hurt a research field at times, notice that some of the predictions about AI agents (recognizing people/faces, language translation) have already become reality today.

Being reminded of the past is such a great experience. I know that not everyone wants this kind of thing in their life, but I think that it is fine. As long as we are able to do what we do, then it is fine. I think that people just do not understand what it means to look back into the past. Sure, it might sound very unimportant, but there is no other things that is as important as it.
