Description and Table of Contents

Description

How are our memories, our narratives, and our intelligence interrelated? What can artificial intelligence and narratology say to each other? In this pathbreaking study by an expert on learning and computers, Roger C. Schank argues that artificial intelligence must be based on real human intelligence, which consists largely of applying old situations, and our narratives of them, to new situations in less than obvious ways.

Table of Contents

Knowledge is stories where stories come from and why we tell them understanding other people's stories indexing stories shaping memory story skeletons knowing the stories of your culture stories and intelligence.
