Suppose just for a second that Domingos (and I, and many others) were correct that neurosymbolic AI was one of the most promising research directions, and further suppose that we lived in a world in which people trying to pursue that research direction couldn’t get 1% of the…

The conversation appears to be a professional and technical discussion about the funding and strategic approach to neurosymbolic AI research. The tone is inquisitive and critical, with participants engaging in a back-and-forth about the feasibility and financial aspects of such research. The intent seems to be to challenge and explore the ideas presented regarding the scale and investment required for neurosymbolic AI.
