Connectionism vs AI

[Ned Block]

Worth: Connectionism and AI are incompatible because connectionism is
biological and AI ignores implementation.

False, false, false.  Connectionism IS a tyhpe of AI, albeit biologically 
inspired AI.  Connectionist networks could easily be made more brain-
like, eg, by not allowing weights to change between positive and
negative.  But this is not a popular idea, and ONLY becasue it would make
the networks much less useful.
