Language of Thought
Can we use language as the method of querying memory?
# Language of thought hypothesis
- proposes thinking occurs in a mental language, this is called mentalese
- computations in a classical way
- classical computational architecture distinguishes between data-structures and rules/programs which operate on said structures
- neural networks or connectionist networks challenges any argument for mentalese (as they don’t fall under the GOFAI/classical computation category)
