  4. “how can the semantic interpretation of a formal symbol system be made intrinsic to the system , rather than just parasitic on the meanings in our heads?”

  5. what kinds of reasoning can be performed by systems constrained by different representational criteria ?

  6. formal framework method: assume formal primitives for semantic interpretability and the universe of concepts , then mathematically model the SGP not a complete solution, but simplifjcation + real progress no math today: details in the proceedings

  7. CFSIR context-free semantically interpretable representation semantically interpretable SIR representation iconic and symbolic ISR representation DR distributed representation UR unconstrained representation NF non-formal

  8. interpretable representation context-free semantically pet_mouse mickey_mouse computer_mouse

  9. semantically interpretable c(animal,mouse) representation c(disney,mouse) c(device,mouse)

  10. iconic and symbolic representation

  11. distributed representation

  12. unconstrained representation

  13. non-formal

  14. so, what’s the point? SGP is a major challenge of AI the framework raises new questions formalization opens the way for proofs the framework aids communication

  15. ¬ SIR ~ I ISR ~ I ν

  16. some questions which class is sufficient for AGI? where does your research fit in? which classes are pragmatically useful ? are any of these classes equivalent ?
