“In the ’80s, a number of psychologists, computer scientists and linguists developed the Connectionist approach to cognitive psychology. Using neural nets, this community cast a new light on human thought and learning, anchored in basic ingredients from neuroscience. Indeed, backpropagation and some of the other algorithms in use today trace back to those efforts.”

“How do you even think about unsupervised learning? How do you benefit from it? Once our understanding improves and unsupervised learning advances, this is where we will acquire new ideas, and see a completely unimaginable explosion of new applications. (Ilya Sutskever)”
