I don't know if this is some kind of deranged running gag, or Eugene is running multiple versions, all of whom need separate explanations, but, for the record, yet again: I do not believe in conservative AI. Not everyone who refuses to believe in neural networks believes in conservative AI. The people who've been doing AI over the last fifty years, and have partitioned it into classical and connectionist, did not exactly exhaust the problem space. Classical and connectionist AI are simply two sides of the same coin.
