Response to Dresher and Hornstein

Schank, Roger C.; Wilensky, Robert

Cognition, 5, 2, 133-45, Jun 77

The authors respond to Dresher and Hornstein's article (EJ 161 384, Cognition, December, 1976) on artificial intelligence (AI). The dispute between linguistic theorists and AI researchers is based upon their different aims; while AI researchers develop programs capable of intelligent behavior, transformational linguists study the characteristics of grammatically correct sentences.
