Connectionists: Sentient AI Survey Results

[Gary Marcus]

I would add to the below that there are multiple reasons why current models are neither trustworthy nor reliable (e.g., also because they lack world models and adequate robust processes for reasoning) but Stephen has really hit the nail on the head here. AI doesn’t need to *replicate* the human mind, but current systems very much do “omit key processes that make humans intelligent”, and the fact that they are untrustworthy and unreliable follows directly from there.

We must consider alternative approaches if we are to rectify the untrustworthiness and unreliability.
