The fundamental decomposition of the intelligent system is not into
independent information processing units which must interface with each
other via representations. Instead the intelligent system is decomposed
into independent and parallel activity producing [units] which all interface
directly to the world through perception and action....
Even at a local level we do not have traditional AI representations. We
never use tokens which have any semantics that can be attached to them....
There are no variables that need instantiation in reasoning processes. There
are no rules which need to be selected through pattern matching. There are
no choices to be made....
We hypothesize that much of even human level activity is ... a reflection of
the world through very simple mechanisms without detailed representations.

多年以前我念过海德格尔的书,也学过ai modern approach这个课本。后来出国后发现
有个应用海德格尔的技术圈子。问一个人(这个人是Larry Page的老板。我多年后才知
道)要了一个文章。
这个人的综述里说,有个学者认为第一个进行海德格尔转向的是AI。然后给了几个实际
例子。其中一个例子是机器人。上面这几段话是这个机器人研究者写的。根据上面这段
话,还有一些别的谈话。以及这个机器人研究者引用的德雷福斯的话。他们认为就是和
海德格尔approach比较接近。讲究的
是being in the world,而不是present at hand。等等。
我刚查了一下。这个机器人专家后来开了个公司,就是现今的扫地机器人公司iRobot
。他还另写了个AI without reason.
