AbstractIn the nineteen eighties, a lot of ink was spent on the question of symbol grounding, largely triggered by Searle’s Chinese Room story. Searle’s article had the advantage of stirring up discussion about when and how symbols could be about things in the world, whether intelligence involves representations or not, what embodiment means and under what conditions cognition is embodied, etc. But almost twenty years of philosophical discussion have shed little light on the issue, partly because the discussion has been mixed up with arguments whether artificial intelligence was possible or not. Today I believe that sufficient progress has been made in cognitive science and AI that we can move forward and study the processes involved in representations instead of worrying about the general framework with which this should be done.
