Minsky-Papert Critique

Era: AI Winter · 1970s–1990s

Marvin Minsky and Seymour Papert published "Perceptrons," a rigorous analysis of what single-layer perceptrons can and cannot represent. The book is often associated with the later decline in interest in neural networks, but funding shifts also reflected limited computing power, unmet expectations, and broader policy decisions.
