“Building Systems with Concepts: A New Foundation for Artificial Intelligence”
About My Work
I am developing the idea of concept-driven systems—a new architectural framework for artificial intelligence and general design strategy grounded in how humans actually form concepts and express intentions. Unlike today’s language models that learn from text patterns or earlier attempts at manual knowledge engineering, this approach creates systems that inherently understand causality, temporality, and the consequences.
The insight is simple but profound: when my partner says “Honey, please send an invitation to Mark,” she’s actually programming—using natural language as an interface to express a precise conceptual structure. What if we designed all systems this way?
New paradigm
We stand at a critical juncture: we can either continue improving systems that fundamentally misunderstand the world, or we can build something genuinely new—systems that truly understand us and reflect our way of thinking.
Beyond text-based intelligence
From washing machines you can actually talk to, to AI that learns from the structure of human action itself, the framework charts a practical path beyond the limitations of text-based intelligence.
Third Path to AI
Concept-driven systems offer a third path in AI development—one that bridges human cognition and machine capability through the universal structures underlying all purposeful action.
