Of course human behavior is computable, at least in aggregate. How do you think marketing works? The mind is a computer and there's nothing special about it.

- coldtea 6y agoThere's a lot of thing special about it, whether it's a computer or not. For one, it's a whole different architecture. Second, it's several orders of magnitude more complex. Third, it changes based on all kind of strange inputs, not just conditions in the program and some IO (e.g. changes in chemicals in the body). Even the substructure where the "program" runs changes properties (like a CPU changing material properties mid-execution). Fourth, the "program" is self-modifying constantly, as opposed to a static program or different reprogrammings of an FPGI. Fifth, there's no manual or clear schematics.
