The Curse of Frege
نویسنده
چکیده
I mention two methodological problems with AI's study of inference that have to do with excessive faith in classical logic. The first is the familiar bias toward formalisms that incorporate deductive patterns of argument: a bias against inductive patterns of reasoning. The second is the pretension that inference can be studied with no regard for one's habits of representation. By implicating Frege, I am not trying to argue an historical thesis, but I will explain why I think of Levi's phrase, "the curse of Frege," whenever I think of these problems.
