# In Defense of Hyper-Logicist AI

Selmer Bringsjord, Michael Zenzen

*Proceedings of the Twelfth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence*, pages 1066-1071.

## Abstract

We argue for "hyper"-logicism, the view, hitherto unarticulated, that AI can succeed in creating a genuine robot agent by building a symbol system of the appropriate sort which has no sub-symbolic interaction whatsoever with the external world.
