Brooks: intelligence without representation

Argued for incrementally constructed, situated intelligence coupled to the real world without relying on a central explicit world model, synthesizing behavior-based robotics results.

What is recorded here?

Argued for incrementally constructed, situated intelligence coupled to the real world without relying on a central explicit world model, synthesizing behavior-based robotics results.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

The record is Brooks's sole-author 1991 Artificial Intelligence paper, received in 1987. It is distinct from the 1986 subsumption-architecture paper and does not show that every intelligent system can dispense with all internal state or representation.
