Relevance realization

Relevance realization is a theory that claims to solve the frame problem, the binding problem, the problem of what cognition is made of and the problems facing the creation of artificial intelligence. A number of researchers including John Vervaeke and Ronald de Sousa (both from the University of Toronto) have argued that the basic ability to ignore the irrelevant information and form a salience landscape of a situation is a pre-rational, pre-linguistic, pre-verbal ability that forms the very basis of human and non-human cognition, but it is one that computers lack. To a computer, every piece of information has the same importance (e.g. the text, "someone is going to die tonight" and "there are daisies in the meadow").
