- visarga 10y agoThe Chinese Room is not a valid mental experiment because it tries to evaluate the language understanding ability of an entity that is not an agent, then compare it to that of real agents. The room is not grounded in reality, doesn't optimize behavior in order to maximize reward (is not intelligent) and doesn't have any external constraints (need to survive and reproduce) that human have. So obviously, it can't develop the same understanding as humans. Also, the "codebook" in the Chinese Room was just a weak word, in reality it means deep neural networks with generalization power, not just a hash lookup. Searle has difficulty in understanding how generalization works in machine learning, so he is reducing it to a caricature word.
