Thanks! Interesting point, for sure :) I wasn't aware of these approaches, so I actually had to google the terms, thanks for pointing it out. It seems to me, yes, it would somehow fit into the, let's face it, somewhat reductive idea of merging symbolic and statistical AI that I try to push at the end. (Being an article for the general reader I have to make some necessary simplifications that I hope are not too much oversimplifications :) So yes, from what I can grasp by a quick online read, I think these methods kind of fit this narrative but as you say, a deeper dive would necessarily break this simplistic dualism of symbolic vs statistical. Something I have to keep in mind for a future version, for sure!
