> Most "knowledge" deep learning systems have seems tacit to me
it's an interesting question if they're actually tacit in the human sense or not. At the base level even deep learning systems certainly rely on digital manipulation. It's almost certain that the human-brain due to speed constraints of biochemical processes doesn't run on tons of matrix-multiplication or loss functions, so it's an open question I guess if deep learning systems really just resemble the tacit capacity of humans or if there's something fundamentally different in the architecture of organic systems that cannot be replicated at least in today's machines. Which I think is actually fairly likely to be honest and I always wonder why it's disregarded.
It's funny that the top comment of this chain asserts dualism, but I think dualism is overwhelmingly common among CS folks, who almost seem to treat intelligence like some sort of platonic thing, completely ignoring the stuff it's made out of.
