“What Computers Cannot Do – A Philosophical Approach”
Date: Tuesday 31st October, 2017
Time: 1640-1800
Place: A-130
Abstract: Recent developments in computer programming, information technology, and robotics have given rise to optimistic predictions about future possibilities in artificial intelligence. I will present two sets of philosophical arguments that cast this optimism into doubt. One of them suggests that there is a limitation of principle applying to any machine whatsoever.
This talk is intended for a general audience.
