The article did not make sense so I dug up some of the papers in question. Those do not make sense either.

It appears to be a poorly executed and overstated attempt at (re-)discovering high-order inductive computational models. These are equivalent to Turing models unless you happen to have a hypercomputer at your disposal.

The endless parade of low-quality claims like this is why no one takes AI research seriously, even the quality work.

"no one takes AI research seriously"

Really? You don't think modern AI research has produced any serious results? Do you know how many applications machine learning methods are used in today?
