Views into the Chinese Room
Oxford University Press (Verlag)
978-0-19-925277-0 (ISBN)
The most famous challenge to the aims of cognitive science and artificial intelligence is the philosopher John Searle's 1980 'Chinese Room' argument. Searle argued that the fact that machines can be devised to respond to input with the same output that a mind would give does not mean that mind and machine are doing the same thing: for the latter lacks understanding. Nineteen specially written essays by leading scientists and philosophers assess, renew, and respond to this crucial challenge--fascinating reading for anyone interested in minds and computers.
John Preston is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Reading. Mark Bishop is Lecturer in Cybernetics at the University of Reading.
