The Society of Mind - Marvin Minsky
  
 
Posted: Mar 22, 2011

Just got this book in today, and I’m already hooked. It’s a big collection of one-page essays on all the individual functions of the mind and how they can be implemented in AI.

Written in 1985, some ideas are a little bit outdated. However, most of it is still very current in today’s AI research.

Thanks Hans Peter for posting this. As you know, we’ll soon publish our research area with a dedicated ‘books’ section.

Would you be prepared to write a 100 words review of this book we can publish once library goes live?

I’ll be happy to do so Erwin. Same for other books I have (and some still on order as well).

That one talks about his famous “Frames” system right?  I still think that idea has merit.
