Problems in local semantic processing

Graéme Ritchie · Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour · 1976

Winograd's SHRDLU program carried out full semantic processing, including computing of referents, as it parsed. If we try to generalise this mechanism, certain difficulties arise concerning inadequate information about contexts of reference. This suggests that we may need to perform much of the semantic processing on senses rather than referents.
