Noam Chomsky says there are two kinds of AI.

1. The first kind of AI research is more like engineering for example creating self driving cars, language translation & object recognition.

2. The second kind of AI research is trying to replicate the intelligence of living organisms (humans, worms) with models that are consistent with what cognitive scientist have.

An example for such a system is one that would pick up any human language with very little supervision. Like children for example.

Open worm seems like no. 2. Any one have any interesting resources for no. 2 type AI? I would love to explore it some more.
