If you haven't learned the bitter lesson about AI research then it's time you did:

http://www.incompleteideas.net/IncIdeas/BitterLesson.html

this was a great read. Few great quotes:

"The second general point to be learned from the bitter lesson is that the actual contents of minds are tremendously, irredeemably complex; we should stop trying to find simple ways to think about the contents of minds, such as simple ways to think about space, objects, multiple agents, or symmetries"

"We want AI agents that can discover like we can, not which contain what we have discovered. Building in our discoveries only makes it harder to see how the discovering process can be done."
