I think we're talking past each other. I'm not interested in defending symbolic AI at all; it's clear it's failed. All told, I would not say I'm particularly interested in any kind of AI.

I'm interested in theory of mind, and I think defeasibility with a huge number of dimensions is a stronger explanation of how humans behave and think than something resembling an LLM. This doesn't somehow mean that LLMs haven't "won" (they have); I just don't think they're winning at human-like cognition. This in turn does not mean we could build a better alternative, either.
