Gary Marcus on the Claude Code leak [D]
Gary Marcus just tweeted:
... the way Anthropic built that kernel is straight out of classical symbolic AI. For example, it is in large part a big IF-THEN conditional, with 486 branch points and 12 levels of nesting — all inside a deterministic, symbolic loop that the real godfathers of AI, people like John McCarthy and Marvin Minsky and Herb Simon, would have instantly recognized
I've read my share of classical AI books, but I cannot say that 486 branch points and 12 levels of nesting make me think of any classical AI algorithm. (They make me think of a giant ball of mud that grew more "special cases" over time). Anyways, what is he talking about?
