Energy-based models offer a better paradigm than probabilistic models for capturing dependencies between variables in high dimensions because representing exact joint distributions is intractable.

Evidence Quote

estimating distribution in high dimension is basically impossible... learn an energy function... energy-based model... much better way... much simpler way of capturing dependencies than probabilistic modeling.
