Orchestrating Intelligence: The Symphony of Thought
The third significant work, "Symphony of Thought," presents an advanced vision for orchestrating artificial cognition. Instead of treating AI as a monolithic system, Shapiro advocates for a multi-service, orchestral approach, where numerous microservices interact seamlessly to produce intelligent behavior.
This architecture is described as more elegant, flexible, and easier to implement than previous models. It involves complex coordination among different modules—each responsible for specific cognitive functions—creating a cohesive, adaptable intelligence. However, due to current computational costs, full implementation remains a future goal; nonetheless, the foundational groundwork has been laid.
