Artificial Inteligence Thread

Read up on "the Chinese room". AI is impossible according to our current understanding

>>1637556
The man doesn't understand Chinese, but the system/"set of instructions" does. The objection would be like saying humans are not concious because no individual neuron is unconcious.

>Improve our perception. to be succeeded.
Succeeded in what? survive? spread ourselves out the universe like spores? This is not a behaviour of the full upgraded independent organism. We need food, whater, O2.. A machine needs... Radiation from the stars. we have a lot of then and maybe we create our own some day... What to do next? Is a tough question

is this species level existentialism? theres nothing there guy

>>1637543
To prove to ourselves that we can. Humans nature.

>>1637962

never ever is certainly not the words I'd used.

Chinese room doesn't mean AI doesn't exist.

Both of which can be accomplished outside of organisms.

Take your vitalism back to to the 19th century, gramps.

Because humans are the most intelligent being thus far and the natural starting point for creating a being superior to humans.
