Summary
Prediction science is likely to push on toward distinct reconceptualizations or the dismantling of the cornerstones of traditional cognitive science, away from rule-based symbol manipulation and toward a comprehensive systems prediction science, toward theoretical unification and simplicity, toward figuring out the pros and cons of the representation-light and representation-heavy, toward incorporating analog representations and common codes, toward proactive, probabilistic, mechanistic, and formalized theories, and computationally specified models of the predictive mind. The paradigm shift of the predictive revolution is no longer only emerging: it is continuing at an ever-increasing pace.
