Why is logic attractive as a representation for an agent?

  • A.Knowledge can be added without changing the reasoning machinery
  • B.Logical inference is faster than any alternative method
  • C.Logic requires no commitment about what the world contains
  • D.Every question can be answered in bounded time

Answer: A

Adding a sentence extends what the agent knows without any code being written, which is the declarative promise that motivated the whole approach. Speed is generally poor, every logic makes an ontological commitment, and first order questions are not answerable in bounded time. The ability to extend a system by stating facts rather than by programming is the property that justified the cost, and it is worth naming precisely.
