@thrilway@kolektiva.social Indeed. And that's the sort of thing I'm talking about, too. In the field of AI, though, this gets associated with "good old fashioned AI", which emphasized applying logic to knowledge graphs. Those projects always got bogged down with excessive complexity without ever becoming useful, whereas deep learning has become wildly successful by ditching that stuff. So, nativist ideas get an extreme and silly stereotype, and nativist arguments tend to get hastily dismissed by association with failure.
