(MIT)Toshiba Professor of Media Arts and Sciences:Marvin Lee Minsky (1927~2016)、Alex 'Sandy' Pentland

2020年6月15日要私辦" Herbert Simon 記念"。
主題是逐年公布昔日翻譯 Simon 的重要書籍、演講、論文 (有的半途而廢,譬如上周公布的〈文學批評與認知科學〉)。

另外,重新接上當年認知科學群英。昨天才發現
(MIT)Toshiba Professor of Media Arts and Sciences:Marvin Lee Minsky (1927~2016)、Alex 'Sandy' Pentland

Marvin Lee Minsky (August 9, 1927 – January 24, 2016) was an American cognitive scientist concerned largely with research of artificial intelligence (AI), co-founder of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AI laboratory, and author of several texts concerning AI and philosophy.[12][13][14][15]
Minsky received many accolades and honors, such as the 1969 Turing Award.

He was the Toshiba Professor of Media Arts and Sciences, and professor of electrical engineering and computer science.

他過世時,大作The Society of Mind 可在網路找到

 is both the title of a 1986 book and the name of a theory of natural intelligence as written and developed by Marvin Minsky.[1]
In his book of the same name, Minsky constructs a model of human intelligence step by step, built up from the interactions of simple parts called agents, which are themselves mindless. He describes the postulated interactions as constituting a "society of mind", hence the title.[2]
