Episode notes
In this chat, I ponder about an increasingly relevant question of our times: "Can machines actually think?" With incredible improvements in the fields of artificial intelligence, computers are getting increasingly smarter but surprisingly more human like. Is it conceivable that very soon, they will gain human intelligence? What exactly is intelligence anyway, and how can we be so sure that we humans have "intelligence"? Let's take a deep dive as I explore this topic with the philosophy works of Alan Turing, John Searle, Rene Descartes and Gilbert Ryle.
