Abstract

steels & belpaeme (s&b) take technical and conceptual shortcuts that have significant negative consequences on simulation implementation and agent behavior. justifiably, their model represents a proof of concept of the role of culturalism in category formation; nevertheless, the absence of detailed information concerning the embodiment of agents and the superficial implementation of learning approaches make their results less relevant than they could be.
