It seems miraculous that purely conceptual machine translation works at all, but that is because concepts are shared between speakers, so the structure of the conceptual space can be inferred from the statistics of language use. But the statistics of language use have too little information to infer what objects look like and how they interact.
My own original ideas concern a few parts of the emerging understanding of what the brain does. The "request-confirmation networks" that I have introduced at a NIPS workshop in last the December are an attempt at modeling how the higher layers might self-organize into cognitive programs.
Cheers!
