Artificial intelligence is everywhere in our day-to-day lives and our interactions with the world. And it's made impressive progress at a variety of visual, linguistic, and reasoning tasks. Does this improved performance indicate that computers are thinking, or is it just an engineering artifact? Can it help us understand how children acquire knowledge and develop language skills? Or are humans fundamentally different from machines? Josh and Ray decode the babble with Michael Frank, Professor of Human Biology at Stanford University and Director of the Symbolic Systems Program.

That is a very interestingThat is a very interesting question. ..interesting, I think, because it is highly speculative, and at the present, intersection of science and philosophy, lacking any real evidence either pro or con. Sort of like questions around the origins and situation of consciousness: we know, or think we know, what it means to be conscious in the human sense. But, we can't put a nail in it. Yet. Understanding babies of any kind requires speculation as well as an experiential view, insofar as they have no vocabulary with which to tell us what they need or want. We kind of know when they are hungry and definitely know when a diaper change is paramount. AI has no point of reference on such matters. I fail to see how it could have one.

Isn't one of the main goalsIsn't one of the main goals an understanding of how natural cognitive systems work by designing an artificial one which produces the same results? Speaking just about the science independent from practical applications, the apparent goal could reasonably be described as generating a simulation which answers questions about how what is simulated works. If that's the case, then alternate models of informative simulation would have to be excluded, which leads me to the same conclusion which you have reached, as no single simulation-model, so far as I'm aware, excludes the alternates and therefore can not be structurally informative. Is this a fair assessment of your point?
