An End to Pornography, Sophistry, and Panty Raids
- draw_down 7y agoI like the Chinese room argument partly because it is démodé. I’m about 10 years younger than the author and it was taught to me too, but I recall finding it much more convincing than the instructor did. Certainly it was not presented as irrefutable or the last word on the matter. I’m not sure why a Commodore should be any different than a more current computer as far as Searle’s argument is concerned. Anyway, everything else discussed here is reprehensible.
