The General Problem Solver (Newell and Simon) – not important if the problem is solved correctly but rather if the steps correspond to the way humans think
Cognitive science brings together computer models from AI and experimental techniques from psychology to construct precise and testable theories of the working of the human mind
-- How to validate? Requires
1) Predicting and testing behavior of human subjects (top-down)
or 2) Direct identification from neurological data (bottom-up)
Both approaches (roughly, Cognitive Science and Cognitive Neuroscience) are now distinct from AI
