Wonder what’ll happen in image recognition form in reading emotions from people’s eyes – like in this emotion recognition assessment we have created at Gyfted. We’re very sceptical of ‘reasoning’ and symbolic system representation of any artificial intelligence algos, rather, they’re great at large scale computing and pattern recognition..

2024 update: this is all really intriguing, this research is based on memory storage really, when we look at – for instance – Apple AI team’s research and the fact that LLMs are able to perform extremely well in complex pattern matching, but not reasoning itself.
