| Abstract |
|
Since the earliest days of artificial intelligence, it has been recognized that commonsense reasoning is one of the central challenges in the field. However, progress in this area has on the whole been frustratingly slow. In this review paper, we discuss why commonsense reasoning is needed to achieve human-level performance in tasks like natural language processing, vision, and robotics, why the problem is so difficult, and why progress has been slow. We also discuss four particular areas where substantial progress has been made, the techniques that have been attempted, and prospects for going forward. |
