Site: "Another way of classifying ANN types is by their method of
learning (or training), as some ANNs employ supervised training while
others are referred to as unsupervised or self-organizing."
Me: "unsupervised or self-organizing" - obviously they don't know what
they're talking about. No intelligent being that we know of is able to
go from instinct to intelligence on its own, simply because it must come
from an instinct-only stage, during which it is at its most vulnerable.
Site: "Supervised training is analogous to a student guided by an
instructor."
Me: The presupposition here is that the student has LEARNED HOW TO
LEARN. With AI, though, you cannot just start out with an advanced
learner. It's IMPOSSIBLE. An "advanced learner" is way too complex for
you to create in the first place. When you try and create an "advanced
learner," you've simply created an expert system with all your own
biases. The AI entity has to start out much simpler, with the tools
(hardware+instincts) to learn (just like the only intelligent creatures
we know must do).
Site: "Unsupervised algorithms essentially perform clustering of the
data into similar groups based on the measured attributes or features
serving as inputs to the algorithms. This is analogous to a student who
derives the lesson totally on his or her own."
Me: What beginning intelligent creature have you ever known was able to
learn on its own from the start? Sure, LATER, after it became an
advanced learner did it learn how to acquire knowledge itself... but it
couldn't start like that.
