The Winter 1988 issue of AI Magazine carries a report on the
June, 1987 Workshop on Theoretical Issues in Conceptual
Information Processing. I wish to correct an error that somehow
crept in and changed the intended meaning rather drastically in
the section "From the Workshop Chair," written by me. A sentence
in that section as published reads: "The goal of these
gatherings [TICIP meetings] has been to understand intelligence
and cognition as feasible computations as they apply to the
construction of performance programs for narrowly defined tasks
(expert systems)." The sentence as originally written by me
read: "A goal of these investigations has been understanding
intelligence and cognition as feasible computations, as OPPOSED
[my emphasis for this message] to the construction of
performance programs for narrowly defined tasks (expert systems)
or formalization per se." Quite a difference in meaning.
