Eyewitnesses wrote that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, and later rose from the dead himself. If this really happened it makes sense why none of the apostles were afraid to die for what they were certain was true.

The Quran says that Allah sent Jesus with the Gospel (Sura 5:46). If this is true, then what Jesus said is true.

Jesus claimed to offer everlasting life to those who believe in him (see Gospel of John). Worth looking into?

As a person I can at least tell you what I do and don't understand about something, ask questions to improve/correct my understanding, and truthfully explain my perspective and reasoning. The machine model is not only a black box,

By mentioning skin color in that sentence they seem to be implying it is connected to why she left the company. But they don't present any evidence of this, so why mention it?

These were just a few issues with the latest version. Similar problems have occurred with past releases for years, and it seems the author is justifiably stressed out over the lack of transparency and never being sure if/when a breakin

Oh? What algorithm was executed to discover the laws of planetary motion, or write The Lord of the Rings , or the programs for training the GPT-4 model, for that matter? I'm not convinced that human creativity, ingenuity, and understa

You are assuming that our minds are an algorithmic program which can be implemented with source code, but this just begs the question. I don't believe the human mind can be reduced to this. We can accomplish many non-algorithmic things

We may use computers as a tool to help us solve it, but nonetheless it takes a conscious mind to understand the conjecture and come up with rational ways to reach the solution.

When mathematicians solve the Collatz Conjecture then we'll know. This will likely require creativity and thoughtful reasoning, which are non-algorithmic and can't be accomplished by computers.

With this example, a human can examine the implementation of the doesHalt function to determine what it will return for the input, and thus whether the program will halt. Note: whatever algorithm is implemented in the doesHalt function

My question was in response to the statement "Neither a human can solve the halting problem." There's an interesting article/podcast here about what computers can't do: https://mindmatters.ai/2020&#x

Lol. Is there source code for our mind?

For what input would a human in principle be unable to determine the result (assuming unlimited time)? It doesn't matter what the algorithmic doesHalt function returns - it will always be incorrect for this program. What makes you ce

by theodorejb 4y ago
How do you know that? Do you have an example program and all its inputs where we cannot in principle determine if it halts? Many things are non-algorithmic, and thus cannot be done by a computer, yet we can do them (e.g. love someone, enjoy
