The biggest advance in AI since the LLM

Gary Marcus argues that Anthropic's Claude Code represents a significant advancement in AI, moving beyond pure large language models (LLMs) by incorporating symbolic AI techniques. He points to a leaked kernel, print.ts, as evidence of this neurosymbolic approach, which he believes is more effective than scaling alone for achieving reliable AI. Marcus suggests this development validates his long-held advocacy for neurosymbolic AI and signals a potential shift in how AI research and development capital should be allocated. AI
