EMERGENT PHENOMENA. "Out of the interactions between these simple units emerges complex behavior, patterns, and intelligence. Here we’re talking about the result we are hoping for in our sketches. Yes, we know this happens in nature (ant colonies, termites, migration patterns, earthquakes, snowflakes, etc.)." http://natureofcode.com/book/chapter-6-autonomous-agents/ View in LinkedIn

NON-INTELLIGENT PARTS. “Minsky and Papert also developed what came to be called The Society of Mind theory, which attempts to explain how intelligence could be a product of the interaction of non-intelligent parts.

SIMPLE AGENTS. “The main idea of the society of mind theory is that human minds work as a society of interacting agents which are mindless. The model is built layer by layer from the interactions of these simple agents. Human intelligence is that they work together.” https://lnkd.in/d-5HkQF View in LinkedIn

THE BOOK. “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.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Society_of_Mind View in LinkedIn

SOCIETY OF PROCESSES. “In trying to make that robot see, we found that no single method ever worked well by itself. For example, the robot could rarely discern an object's shape by using vision alone; it also had to exploit other types of knowledge about which kinds of objects were likely to be seen. This experience impressed on us the idea that only a society of different types of processes could possibly suffice.” https://lnkd.in/dkTGTAb View in LinkedIn

ADDITIVE. “These kinds of experiences led Minsky and Papert to become powerful advocates of the view that intelligence was not the product of any simple recipe or algorithm for thinking, but rather resulted from the combined activity of great societies of more specialized cognitive processes.” https://lnkd.in/dkTGTAb View in LinkedIn
