> could pen an equation (model) on how to spot a fucking cat or a hotdog without AI? Of course someone could
I had a philosophy lecturer who would vehemently disagree that it is even possible to construct an algorithmic AI to decide what is and isn’t a cat.
For a start, do you mean domestic cats, or the cat family? What about photos, sculptures and other representations?
I mean, is Garfield a cat?
People use statistical machine learning over algorithmic AI because trying to model the real world with algorithms is an endless and often pointless exercise.
