> we have to decide how that information is structured and communicated to the "higher level meaning interpretation" stage.
Do we? I'm not convinced. I've joined different sensory inputs before and just glommed together the top of two nets, I didn't have to create any of my own representations.
> but we will never get machines to do that if we continue curating structured data sets
Curated datasets are important though. Want your machine to understand more about the world around it? Then you need high quality inputs in formats you can load in. These data also need to be licensed correctly.
> They need to be able to do that themselves.
We don't chuck kids out into the wilderness and expect them to come back as a useful member of society. We have a huge range of inputs specifically curated to help (from toys and shows to school curricula). Later on with specialisation we pay for extremely carefully selected data, presented in a specific order!
Creating high quality datasets is vital for really anything from niche specialist systems to large general ones.
