While it's not exactly what he did, the answer to this question is yes. That's called inductive logic programming. Essentially you provide background knowledge, positive examples and negative examples, and it spits out a logic program. It's where the frontier of symbolic AI has sat for a hot second now.

Thanks! There is something magical about those symbolic approaches. But in practice, they seem to often fall short of expectations. Wonder whether there will be another "symbolic AI summer" one day.
