Science Beyond Reductionism

Monica Anderson discusses the ongoing paradigm shift - the "Holistic Shift" - which started in the life sciences and is spreading to the remaining disciplines.
Model Free Methods (also known as Holistic Methods) are an increasingly common approach used on "the remaining hard problems", including problems in the domain of "AI" - Problems that require intelligence. She illustrates this using a Model Free approach to the NetFlix Challenge.
The ideas we are talking about are that the brain works using Intuition and Prediction, not Logic; that Intelligence is 99% Intuition; that Intuition based methods allow short-term prediction in Bizarre problem domains; that they also allow Discovery of Semantics from mere observations of chains of events such as those in spatiotemporal sequences; that artificial systems based on these ideas can learn and understand languages and partially understand the world using only text as input
My rough estimate is that over a million person-years has been spent on AI and closely related topics worldwide
