I really enjoyed this (old) New Books Network interview. Going to use it as supplementary material in #PhilosophyOfAI #philosophy #cognition #fodor

Uh literally what has #Fodor shown? The Muller-Lyons illusions are learned, they're not evidence that observation is not theory-laden. They're evidence that it IS. #Kuhn

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCl

Readwise highlight from "Did Kuhn Kill Logical Empricism?" (1991) by G. A. Reisch

But this psychological argument against the theory/observation distinction is not sound, as Fodor (1984, 1988) has recently shown. While Kuhn invokes gestalt illusions (of the duck-rabbit variety) to support the claim that observation is theory-laden, Fodor points out visual illusions (Muller-Lyer illusions, for instance) which refute the generality of that claim. We may see a figure as a duck or as a rabbit depending on our background beliefs about that figure, but the one Muller-Lyer line always looks longer than the other despite our beliefs about their lengths. Now the conditions under which background beliefs do or do not have access to and influence on perceptual mechanisms are not clear. But there is no question that sometimes the way things look is affected by what we believe about them, and sometimes it is not.

@nidgethompson #EMForster, who I’ve never read, apparently said ‘Only connect’. Books connect exponentially. That, in turn, became a rallying cry for #cognitive #architectural #engineers (eg. D. #Rumelhart, P. #Smolensky, &c) wanting to exploit more the neuroanatomy or #hardware?) of the #biological 🧠 rather than the idea (eg #Fodor) that discrete parts of the brain run #software and the further idea that thinking is essentially the latter (a long standing research programme).

Vandaag is pianist en musicoloog Arthur Schoonderwoerd jarig, gefeliciteerd! In 2016 bleek ik een blogpostje gemaakt te hebben, met een aantal werken waarbij hij op (mee)speelt. Gun de goede man zijn $0.004 per track ;-)
En bijzonder gedurfde uitvoeringen!
